Math
This week we reviewed Patterns and Measurement concepts and assessed our learning. We reviewed concepts such as area and perimeter and conversions. Next week we will be taking our last math benchmark, review fourth grade concepts, and begin to learn some fifth grade concepts!
Social Studies
In our Slavery, Civil War, and Reconstruction unit, we learned out some of the events that led up to the Civil War, such as differences between the North and the South. Students were also assigned an Underground Railroad assignment through their Google Classroom. They are welcome to work on these at home in order to complete them!
Reading
This week was all about mythology! We immersed ourselves into Greek mythology by reading a variety of myths, learning what myths teach us, and learning different character archetypes.
Did you hear about the Amazon Prime Book Box? It's a subscription box for hardcover children's book! Check it out!
Writing
We began our historical fiction writing unit! This week we used a variety of brainstorming strategies to think of possible story ideas. Many of us began making a plan for how our story will go.
