In Science we took our open book, lesson review test on illegal and prescription drugs. I think the students did a great job! Next Friday we will be making Red Ribbon Week Posters. For more about Red Ribbon Week go to: http://redribbon.org/In Math the 5th graders retook their math test to see if they could improve their grades. Tomorrow 4th graders will have their Chapter 2 Tests. 3rd graders are starting multiplication.
In writing we talked about inferences and worked on our opinion essays. You can watch the inference video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=to30AJm2epQ.
In writing their opinion piece we talked about supporting details. Here is a good exercise: http://www.studyzone.org/testprep/ela4/h/suppoertingdetailsp2.cfm
Tomorrow their two poems are due for their project.
In reading we started a reading response journal. They will finish up their reading books this week and have a test on them next week.
Thank you to Mrs. Quibell for this great picture of three of our 5th grade boys at the school picnic this past Sunday.
Our quote for today is from Albert Einstein, "Creativity is intelligence having fun."
It's apparent you're making learning fun..makes me want to be a part of it! Appreciate the links as additional sources.
