Oct. 7, 2016 Morawitz Family Update

Hello all!

It has been yet another busy week of learning in room 218!

Check below for some of the highlieghts!

Writing-  We have been working on revising and editing our personal narrative drafts.  Next week, we will be publishing our final copies, and we are excited to share our hard work during our "Brown Bag" breakfast event on Friday!

Science-  We have begun exploring our unit on Earth Systems.  The first part of this unit focuses on erosion.  We have taken a walk outside and seen erosion/erosion prevention on our school grounds, and we have watched a cool Bill Nye video that explains the different ways in which erosion occurs.

Math-  We finished up Topic 3.  Topic 5 is our next unit, and this unit takes multiplication to 2 digit multiplied by 1 digit numbers!

Reading-  Last week, we came to the exciting conclusion of Zach's Lie!  Next week, we will be starting a new chapter book!  In Daily 5, we are focusing on inferencing/prediction and fluency and accuracy!

Well, I thinik that's about it for now.  Be sure to look in the Friday folder for the Brown Bag invitation, and we will see you on Friday!
