March 31-April 4- Chinatown, Midwest Farming, and MCA Preparations

This week in class:
Reading: We are studying Chinatown in San Francisco. Students will complete a newsletter describing several aspects of Chinatown. This is a review week so the spelling words will come from the last 4 weeks. There is no shortened list this week.

Math: Review week. Focusing on MCA skills. See below.

Social: Completing our studies of Midwest farming history. This week focuses on the amazing amount of products that include corn. Students will receive another Ag Mag to complete for Friday.

 MCAs: The tests begin in 3 weeks. This week we will begin looking at how to take the test properly (ie strategies and expectations that I have to help them do their best). We will do 15 review problems per day in math and continue to review essential reading skills on Study Island.

Looks like a great week!

Spelling this week will be the same list as last week. The students struggled with the list from Week 23 (Cricket in Times Square). We will be doing some extra studying this week before moving on to the Week 24 list next week). There will be no word find. Instead the students are studying the words they find most difficult. We will do a final post test on Friday.
