Welcome to Week 17! Sorry for the delay this week. Our brains are still in vacation mode.
Here is the week:
In math we will be starting a chapter on units of length, perimeter, and area. In particular: Monday we will look at cutomary units of length. Tuesday: Metric length. Wednesday: Perimeter. Thursday: Area of a square and rectangle. Friday: Area of a parallelogram. In addition, on Friday we will be taking an Easy CBM assessment to see how each student is progressing in math this year.
In reading we will be start our historical fiction genre study. This week students will be receiving their World War 2 book and will begin reading it and working through a comprehension packet. This packet will look closely at students ability to infer within their novel and will continue to ask them to question the text while they read.
Here is the rubric we will be using for this genre study:
4= In addition to 3.0, in depth inferences and applications that go beyond what was taught
3=The students are expected to:
•provide reasonable inferences based on text cues and own background knowledge.
•Provide evidence from text to support answers.
The student exhibits no major errors or omissions
2=There are no major errors or omissions regarding the simpler details and processes as the student:
•Gives a inference with EITHER background knowledge support or text support but not both
Student exhibits major errors or omissions regarding the more complex ideas and processes
1=With help, a partial understanding of some of the ideas and processes
In writing we will be working on personal narratives. A personal narrative is a true story about ones self. Students will be focusing on sensory details.
That's it for now. Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns.
