These last few weeks in
Reading we began reading our last novel of the year, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. We had a lot of fun getting to
know the characters and seeing what Charlie’s life is like at the start of this
amazing story. We focused on important vocabulary words and discussed questions
about clues from the story that help us make inferences. In Math we learned about making charts using data
and fractions. The students created their own graphs and explored making
equivalent fractions together. Also we worked with decimals.In Social Studies we worked hard to finish our beautiful life size brochures. We also finished up in
the computer lab making our interactive posters using all of our research. We are writing in cursive whenever possible
from now on and practicing using our spelling words in writing activities!
