Math: This week we finished up our math unit by taking our Unit 2 math assessment. The plan was to take the test on Friday, but after some dialogue and debate, we moved it to Friday. The students did not think they could do their best on Halloween. :) Please look for the new study links coming home today.
Reading: We got back into the swing of guided reading and read an article about the different sensory organs of the body. The students focused on their specific sensory organ and taught the other members of the group the ins and outs of that sense.
Writing: We began planning, creating, and publishing an informational paragraph that will go on our Sensory Models (more about this below).
PBL: We continued our learning this week by diving deep into one of the sensory organs. Students were placed into their Expo groups and are working on researching about, planning, and creating models that represent their sensory organ. You will get a chance to see these beautiful creations at Expo on November 17th.
Forms to Return: DTE Energy Forms - We need ALL 24 back to get our 100 grant for classroom supplies and fun! We are getting so close!
Upcoming: Conferences are coming up this week or next. On Sunday, I will send a reminder to parents who will be meeting with me this week. Then two days before the conferences, I will send another reminder. :)
Morning Meeting: We are stretching a little beyond Mindup to focus on Growth Mindset! We learned the difference between fixed and growth mindset and created a wordle to help us remember those growth mindset terms.
I can't believe we are already heading into November! Please continue to ask your child what they are learning about the brain this week.
Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns.
