What are we learning!!!!!
Reading - We are working on aiding our reading comprehension by using various strategies. We have learned that we can jot notes while we read, sketch a picture while we read and write summaries when we have finished reading sections of a text.
Math - We are working on adding and subtracting mixed numbers! We will then move to multiplying, dividing, adding and subtracting whole numbers, fractions, mixed numbers and decimals.
Science - We are currently learning about weather! We are learning about the water cycle, clouds and the weather they bring, air pressure, types of air masses, weather fronts (how they form and what weather they will bring), global and local winds, the Jet Stream, the Gulf Stream, and El Nino and La Nina.
Social Studies - We will begin our new social studies unit of the United States government.
Some of the Responsibilities of 5th graders are:1. Independence - We will earn that 5th graders are responsible for coming to class prepared, staying on task at school, and going home prepared.2. Organization - Students will learn that organization influences independence and success. Students will use their agenda to help them be prepared for school.3. Nightly Homework - Students will have nightly homework. They will need to study his/her math and science notebook and read.4. Study - We will also promote studying. (Reading through his/her math notebook and science notebook nightly). This skill is important to instill for success in middle school, high school, and college.
