Week in Review: March 27-31

In math, we are working on multiplication of 2 digit times 1 digit numbers. We are learning different strategies, and will also learn the standard algorithm.

Using color tiles to learn the "double and half" strategy. Ask your child about this one!

In science, students created ecosystem brochures to show off their knowledge of a particular ecosystem. They also learned a lot about food chains and food webs this week with several interactive activities. We wrapped up our unit on ecosystems and food chains with a test on Friday. We will move on to adaptations and traits next week.

In language arts, we brainstormed many ideas for personal narratives and at the end of the week, began working on a new rough draft. We also continued with our daily book club meetings, but took a break from that one day to work on a Scholastic News magazine with partners of our choice.

I hope you all have a great weekend!
