Reading: After we wrap up our work with the Captain Arsenio story, the students will create their own five-paragraph explanatory essays, a type of writing that explains a topic to an audience by sharing knowledge and ideas.
Science: Mrs. Gemmell will continue to work with us in our "Let's Make a Lava Lamp" unit. In our October STEM challenge, we will design and build a small prototype of a literacy station that can be placed in a public area to encourage book-sharing and reading.
Social Studies: Chapter 4 of the textbook is called "Spain Builds an Empire." We are using the textbook to learn how to read, take notes, and summarize nonfiction texts.
Math: We will spend most of the week working on our haunted volume village project. All of the information including sample work and a rubric is posted in Google Classroom.
