This week we will work on the Paleo, Archaic, Woodland and Mississippi Indian groups. Students are practicing taking notes in their Social Studies notebook. A test will be given over this mini unit and will be announced.
Math:
This week continue our study of place value and building number sense and fluency. Students are taking timed tests/sprints to increase their fluency of concepts. Please check with your child's math teacher for specific homework assignments each night. Don't forget to check the Math page on the blog for additional information.

We have been studying the scientific method and will begin learning about and using various science tools. Your student will get hands on experiences to deepen understanding of how these tools work.
