Reading 3rd and 4th:
We continued working on main ideas and supporting details. We had a Latin/Greek test. The students did great on this test! This week we will have a spelling test on Thursday. Please remind your student to study.
Writing:
We finished our inventor papers. The students typed their papers using different text freatures. Some of the students finished early and researched a person for Black History Month.
Grammar:
We reviewed and then took an assessment on simple and compound sentences. The students all did great on this assessment!
Projects:
We reviewed the different types of simple machines. We then went over the requirements for our egg drop project. Then they got with their partner and came up with two prototypes. They picked one and decided on what materials will be needed. The students are very excited about this project and many want to work on it at home, however they must only work on it at school with their partner. They can bring materials from home that are needed if they want.
