Math
We will be taking our open response on Thursday and our written assessment on Friday. I will be having a review tutorial on Thursday. I highly recommend that students take the time to work on the review packet this week. Also, study link 7.11 is required. It is a very helpful whole unit review.
Social Studies
Due to some scheduling changes, we did not get to finish all of our Constitutional Convention centers last week. We will be finishing them up today and tomorrow. On Friday, we will be moving on to our study of the constitution itself.
Reading
We are continuing our historical fiction book clubs this week. Most groups are about to finish their first book or have just started their second. Reading more than one book gives them the opportunity to study different historical time periods. If you have the opportunity to discuss your child's book with him or her, ask about how the events of the time period the character is living in affects his or her daily life.
Writing
This week in writing we will be continuing to develop our historical fiction stories. We will be focusing on how to weave the historical facts into the plot of the story. We will also be thinking about the motivations and struggles of people from that time period. By the end of the week, students will be working on creating storyboards to outline their drafts.
Homework
