Settling Into Our Routines
|
Here we are already into November and it's time for Parent/Teacher conferences. The latest up-to-date schedule is linked in the left frame, so I look forward to seeing everyone sometime from November 12 - 19.
We are currently in the midst of our unit on Native American cultures from pre-Columbian times. Students will also be reading and analyzing creation stories from those cultures for Language Arts. In Science, we're still working on our weather unit; we're studying convection, weather instruments, and will be getting to weather map symbols as well.
We are now done with Mrs. Frisby, so we'll begin to work on group discussion dynamics in guided literature circles for our next novels, all of which will be realistic fiction.
I'm looking forward to seeing the fifth-graders perform at their music concert on November 10; they will perform with the fourth grade in a patriotic theme for Verteran's Day. |
