What's Happening In The Classroom? 

Reading: 

This week in ELA, we will be taking the MSTEP.  We also learned about personification and looked for examples of it in our reading.  

Math:

Hierarchy, what's that?  Ask your child to describe a hierarchy and how we are using it in mathematics. 
​

​Writing:

Please check out our traditional writing in the hallway featuring fables and folktales.  We will be working on the ELA MSTEP this week.   
​
Social Studies: ​

We have missed Social Studies recently due to PLTW.  We are excited to get back into it in April! 

Morning Meeting: 

Don't tell us your name, teach us your name.  We read an incredible read aloud called "Teach Us Your Name" by Huda Essa, about our names, how we should be proud of them, and be willing to correct people if they pronounce our names wrong, because it is our identity! 

Outside The Classroom: 

Organization is key!  Please have conversations about organization with your child at home.  We are trying to prep them for middle school.
