English Language Arts




Our Grammar test from last week has been moved to this week on Wednesday, December 6th. The skill is Pronouns. 

There will be a spelling test on Thursday, December 7th. 

Reading - We are going to spend the next 2 weeks on this lesson as it is full of great opportunities for learning. The reading test will be sometime next week (December 11-December 15th). The students will be given plenty of notice as to when the actual test will take place.

Writing - We are continuing to work on our Persuasive Christmas Gift Writing.

Social Studies

All of the students did a fantastic job on their 3D Relief Maps of Arizona! Check our our Instagram page to see the finished products.

We will wrap up our lessons on the land of Arizona and move into discussing a little bit about Holidays Around the World as we get closer to Christmas break.

Math

The students will solve multi-step word problems using the formulas for area and perimeter. We will also multiply by 10, 100, and 1,000.

Science

We are working on Chapter 5 - Lesson 2: The Moving Crust. The students will explore how Earth's crust can change. (volcanoes and earthquakes)

Religion

We will be discussing the season of Advent and the Immaculate Conception.
