November 16-20th
This week in reading we will be learning about 1st and 2nd hand accounts. A 1st hand account is something written/told by someone who was actually there. A 2nd hand account is by someone who was not there. This is similar to what we learned last week, but this week we will be reading non-fiction. Our spelling list this week is Sort 27. Students should turn in their 20 points of homework activities on Friday. They should also turn in another Reading Log with 100 minutes on Monday.
This week in writing we are continuing to work on our Turkey/Farmer Opinion letters. We are focusing on the organization of an opinion/persuasive essay. We will write our introduction and conclusion, edit and revise, and start typing our letter this week. This letter is due next Tuesday, November 24 and we will read them to the class on that day.
This week in math we will be finishing our basic Fractions Unit and taking our test on Wednesday. We will then begin our Place Value Unit. Students who were retaking their Long Division Test in Target Time last week will finish that in class. In Target Time this week we will be working on Word Problems. We have not given this test yet because we know that students need extra time in Target Time to review word problems before giving this test.
This week in social studies we will be learning about Recreation. We will be creating Power Points for our favorite recreation activity in Utah. These will be done in class, in partners. Students will be graded on completion of the Power Point. Students should still be studying for their county and county seat test. We will begin giving quizzes on the counties and county seats when we get back from Thanksgiving Break.
It is now Term 2. Grades will soon be posted on Skyward so far for the new term. This will include the Long Division Test. Also, our class has just received 5 classroom Chromebooks from donations on Donorschoose.org. We are so excited to have more access to Chromebooks during class! My goal is to end up with a full class set of Chromebooks as soon as we can. If you would like to learn more about this donation or to donate yourself for our next Chromebooks, please visit my page on Donorschoose.org at: http://www.donorschoose.org/we-teach/3221321. Lastly, next Tuesday we will be going to Orem High for our movie party. This is the party we earned as a school from the Cougar Crawl donation. Please help to make sure that you sign the permission slip that will be sent home this week and PLEASE make sure that your student is here on time to school next Tuesday! We will be leaving right when the PMs get here at 9:15, so make sure your student is on time.

November 17-21st
This week in reading we are talking about 1st and 2nd hand accounts. A 1st hand account of an event is written by someone who was actually there and actually saw what happened. A 2nd hand account is from someone who was not there and did not see with their own eyes what happened, but instead they found out from someone else what happened. Our spelling this week is Sort 27 with -er, -ir, and -ur words.
This week in writing we are continuing to write Thanksgiving persuasive essays. We are either being a farmer or a turkey and persuading the other to either eat the turkey or not to. We are focusing on picking 3 main ideas and having 3 details that go with each main idea. We will also be writing introductions and conclusions.
This week in math we will be taking our test on fractions. Then we move on to our place value unit. This will focus on having students understand our base 10 system and how to do problems with large numbers.
This week in social studies we will be starting our recreation project. Students will be creating a powerpoint presentation in class on their drive about a recreation activity they can do in Utah. They have specific requirements for what needs to be on each slide. They will be working with a partner to do this. Also, next week we will start taking quizzes to prepare students for their counties test. I will post study guides of the exact quizzes on my blog so you can help students prepare for the quizzes.

October 27-October 31st
This week in reading we are focusing on learning new words in texts. We will be reading a lot of different information texts and figuring out the meanings to different words in them that we might not already know. For spelling we are doing Sort 18 which is very similar to last week's sort, but this time with the long -i sound in the first or second syllable. Again, students need to be filling out and turning in their reading log as well as doing 20 points for their spelling homework.
This week in writing we are starting our poetry unit. We will be learning how to write 9 different types of poems. This week we are learning acrostic, color poem, haiku, cinquain, limerick, and tounge twisters. On Friday we will be reading our Haunted House stories. If students are still not done with these, they need to finish them at home this week and bring them back to read and turn in on Friday.
This week in math we are working on word problems. We will be doing division word problems, perimeter and area problems, rounding word problems, and multistep problems. It is difficult at first for students to do word problems, but we are working through them identifying key words, drawing pictures, and writing equations.
This week in social studies we will be talking about how communication and transportation in Utah is affected by the geography we have here. We will also be making maps showing how we get to school everyday. We will also start studying our counties. Before Christmas Break, we will take a test on all of the counties in Utah. Students will need to have memorized where the county is and be able to match it to it's county seat. They will not need to memorize what the counties are though. Students will eventually bring home a study guide to study these at home and I will post resources on my blog to help study these as well.
The end of the first trimester is coming up very quickly. All missing assignments MUST be turned in by next Friday, November 7th. I will be sending home missing assignment sheets this week as well as emailing you their progress reports.
