This is what we have been learning in fifth grade:
Daily 5/CAFE:
The students will complete their Daily 5 Menu entitled: “Katie’s
Trunk”. We will continue to review text
structure and also analyze multiple accounts of the same event or topic, noting
similarities and differences in the point of view they represent.
Writing: This week, the students are finishing their opinion pieces. They are revising, editing and publishing them.
Math: Students have started multiplying decimals to hundredths,
using concrete models or drawings and strategies based on place value
properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and
subtraction. They are also relating the strategy to a written method and
explaining the reason it was used. Next week, we will be moving into division of decimals to the hundredths place.
Social Studies: Students will begin their study of the Revolutionary
War. They will learn: how independence
is gained; how European settlements changed the land and people of North
America; the causes of the Revolutionary War and the aftermath of the American
Revolution. Students will begin a Newspaper Webquest in a few weeks.
