Welcome back! I hope everyone is well rested from their holidays. Here's what we will be up to this week:
French We will keep up the work on our verbs this week by working on our verb "karate belts." We won't have vocabulary words of the week - we will just work on verbs! Here's a little conjugation game kids can play online: www.takatamuser.com/7-8-ans/jeu-conjugaison-verbes.html We will also work in guided reading groups this week. Students will have French books in their homework bags. For extra practice, they can read the books at home. English Slight edit here, as I've changed my original plan. This week in English we will be building our author's notebook. We will work with inferring texts, and review some of the spelling words we have worked on so far. We will also be doing a comic book activity to stretch students' imaginations. Maths We are adding and subtracting decimals this week! On Wednesday we will have an online game where we will learn to budget. The best way for parents to support their children in this is to show them real life examples of addition and subtraction of decimals. Next time you go grocery shopping and your child is with you, point out the prices of things. Get kids to estimate how much the bill will be (before taxes). I've also put Tuesday's activity up on Google Classroom. If any students would like to complete it there, they can log in. Science We are starting our rocks and minerals unit in science. Students will start learning how to identify different types of rocks, what rocks are made of, and how we use rocks in every day life. We will eventually watch this video in class, but here's a Bill Nye video on Rocks and Minerals: www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-K_CHgcazI |
