Welcome Back after a lengthy vacation! We reviewed division in math and started factors and multiples as we head towards a unit on fractions. In reading each group received a new book to read. Students will discuss the book in groups and write a recommendation on our wikispace. Also we looked at poems by Langston Hughes. We started our own "dreams" poems. See below for examples. In writing we continued an opinion writing piece. We will finish these by the middle of the month. In science we started our study of organisms. In social studies we worked on the Great Lakes and a story about the ship the Edmund Fitzgerald. We watched a video and song by Gordon Lightfoot. See video below.
The Way
Go on the way
For the path of dreams is far away
Go on, go on to the path
Go on the way
For your dreams await
Go on, go on to the path
--Caleb Curtis
Teach Me
Teach me how to
Accomplish my goals
And I’ll teach you
How to accomplish yours
Share your dreams
with me
And I’ll share
with you
--Charles Christian IV
