Good Morning!
Reminders for the Week:
Read 25 mins. each night
Daily Math Sheet
Learning this Week:
Math: We will be deepening our understanding of fractions by learning a variety of strategies to compare fractions with unlike denominators. We will continue to make equivalent fractions and begin Topic 9 (Addition and Subtraction of Fractions) by the end of the week. Topic 8 and 9 will be a combined online assessment.
Science: We will be taking our online, volcano assessment and begin discussing our essential questions about Fossils. Students will be reading about the different types of fossils and completing an online lab to discover what materials form the best fossil.

Week of 1/22
Hello!
Reminders for the Week:
Read 25 mins. each night
Daily math sheet
Learning this Week:
Math: We are currently in Topic 8 (Fraction Equivalence). Students are demonstrating their understanding of fractions by creating number lines, fraction models, and using multiplication or division.
Science: We will be reading and discussing the different types of volcanoes and the factors that determine the way a volcano erupts. Students will be mapping volcanoes around the world to look for patterns and learn about the Ring of Fire.

Week of 1/16
Good evening!
Reminders for the Week:
Read 25 mins. each night
Daily math sheet
Learning this Week:
Math: We will be starting Topic 8 (Fraction Equivalence). Students will identify equivalent fractions by using area models, number lines, and multiplication. We will focus on math practice #4 (modeling with mathematics) and #5 (use tools strategically).
S.S/ Science: Students will conclude learning about the U.S. Regions by participating in a gallery walk. This will allow everyone to showcase their hard work (investigation posters) and learn more about each of the U.S. regions. In science, we will continue our learning about different types of volcanoes. Students will be analyzing different volcanoes around the world and make bar graphs based on volcanoes in Alaska.

Week of 1/8
Good morning!
Reminders for the Week:
25 mins. of reading each night
Daily math Sheet
*Book Orders- Tues.
**No School- Friday & Monday**
Learning this Week:
Math: This week we will be wrapping up Topic 7 (Factors & Multiples). We will be reviewing the rules of divisibility, as well as the terms: factor pair, prime, composite, and multiple. In addition, we will continue to work on word problem solving skills.
S.S./Science: Students will be creating an investigation poster on their assigned region. We will have a "gallery walk" at the end of the week so students are able to look at and learn from other posters.
