Hello Division 14 Families. 

 Please read below and if you have any questions, please email us. 

Math:  With Mrs. Brown, we continue to learn about fractions. Students will learn about identifying and creating equivalent fractions.   With Mrs. Westmacott, students continue to work on probability and this week will work on probability practice questions.

Reading: Students continue to learn figurative language and  identify hyperboles in various texts.  We will also do some close reading with music where students will analyze song lyrics from Bruno Mars’ song, “Count on Me”,  looking for deeper meaning, symbolism and themes. Students will also be required to use text evidence to defend their answers.

Writing:  Students completed their research projects last week and this week will present in small groups to the class. 

Science: In science we continue  learning about the rock cycle. 

Social Studies:   In social studies, we will learn about natural resources.


Physical Education: This week we will resume our mini basketball tournament. We will have an outdoor PE class on Thursday and will play California Kickball.

 

Art: This week students will continue to work on their scrapbooks and get them prepared for coming home at the end of June.
