Here is what we have been learning in
fifth grade:
Daily 5/CAFE:
This week students will begin the menu entitled: James Forten.
Students will analyze multiple accounts of
the same event or topic noting similarities and differences in the point of
view they represent. They will also rewrite
a scene from the James Forten story from a new perspective.
Writing: This week we will begin to recognize
elements of argumentation in letters to the editor. They will identify the intended
audience and the desired outcome.
Math: Students
have finished their multiplying decimals unit and are starting dividing decimals to hundredths, using
concrete models or drawings and strategies. They also will be relating the
strategy to the standard algorithm method and explaining the reason it was
used.
Social Studies: This week students will
play a taxation game and read documents that set a precedent for the
Declaration. They will also learn about important battles of the American Revolution. We will have a test
on November 20.
