Will this be the week that is uninterrupted by weather? Will we actually get to go to school and learn for a full five days? My fingers are crossed!
Reading: We will continue our focus on biographies this week. Today the children read a picture book biography but later this week, they will be choosing a longer biography about someone they are interested in learning more about. We have the same vocabulary words this week and our test will be on Friday.
Spelling: Same words as last week: prefixes of re, un and dis.
Language: The students are identifying conjunctions and learning how to use conjunctions to improve their own sentences.
Math: After the division test today we will move on to data and graphing as we collect information not only about the medal counts for the different countries, but also for other topics that interest the children.
Science: The children will be learning more about what it takes to make a light bulb light and circuits.
Alabama History: Our study of just how important cotton was to the south will continue as we discuss why people settled in different areas of our state. We will also look more closely at the value of a slave during the time of the mid-1800s in Alabama.
