Welcome to the week! We have four more weeks of school, and we have a few important dates of which to take note:

May 18 - All Library books are due

May 25 - No School: Memorial Day

May 28 - Field Day

June 5 - Half-Day, Last Day of School

These are our learning goals for the week:

Reading: We are in Week 2 of the Extreme Environments unit.  The students are addressing the question: What does it take to survive in the wild?  The small reading groups are working on finding text evidence to support questions and developing questions based on their reading. The students will be taking their last SRI test to determine their Lexile level this week.

Vocabulary Words: compete, affect, food chain

Spelling Words:  Words that begin with a- or be-.  This is our last week of Spelling words!

Writing: Continue working on the individual stories

Math: Finish with polygons and begin comparing measurements of volume and mass

Have a great week!
