Language Arts: We are researching a self selected topic of interest using our media center data base as well as books that support our topic. During our expository writing unit, we are developing and supporting main ideas in our writing as well as incorporating transition words (such as first, second, and most importantly). We've learned that these words help guide the reader through the explanation. We have talked about the various types of expository writing and are practicing them in class. We are doing this alongside the writing we do in all subjects each day!
Social Studies: In Michigan history we looked at the period of time when Europeans came over and encountered the Native Americans. Now we are focused on how our land became a territory and then a state.
Science: Wea re conducting experiments to support our study of Variables. This unit will last for several more weeks and is a lot of fun!
