Math: This week we made the connection between area models and multiplication. This showed us how to do traditional multiplication, we got this concept and we turned the multiplication problems into word problems! On Thursday we started to learn about multiplying with decimals.
Reading: This week we continued to read the book Home Of The Brave. We are building theories about characters and looking for evidence to support them or perhaps tweak our theory based on new evidence.
Writing: We published our personal narratives this week. Mr. Taft is going to grade our writing pieces. We went through a lot of revisions to bring out the heart of our stories and "show don't tell".
PYP: This week in "Sharing the Planet" we worked in groups and tried to find answers to our inquiry questions. We are going to present our research in the form a speech on Monday and Tuesday.
Specials: Library/Spanish; Music, P.E.
Reminders:
