Learning this week

ELA:   This week in ELA we will continue on our work on summarizing and begin working on finding the authors purpose. We will work with a variety of text and analyzing pictures to find clues that can help us summarize the purpose of a text or picture.  Your student will also complete a word work quiz on the Latin and Greek root words we have been practicing the last several weeks.

Math:  We will continue with our multiplication unit and begin wrapping up by Monday of next week. Our unit 4 test is expected to be next week on Wednesday. Our math lessons for this week are:

Wednesday:4-12 solving multi-step problems and use estimates to assess the reasonableness of their answers

Thursday: 4-7 converting kilograms to grams

Friday: 4-4 converting liters to millilitres 

Please continue practicing multiplication facts daily.

Science: This week in science we will explore the structure and function of the eyes through the question, "How can some animals see in the dark?" Your student will do an experiment observing a peer's pupils and how eyes react with the change of light.



Have an awesome week!


Mr. Hernandez

Entries are due by Friday 1/29. Valentine's Day:   February 14th is approaching fast and, of course, things this year will be a little different.  It just so happens that the 14th is on a Sunday this year and students do not have school on Friday the 12th or on Monday the 15th. So, hold off on the candy and packaged valentines, here is the plan...

Hey Families! We had a great first week back, and have some pictures from our New Year New You Celebration. Please take some time to read the important information about this upcoming week below. Daily Student Health Screener: Click here  for a checklist of symptoms and situations to keep a focused eye on this year. The teachers are logging daily health checks, as well.    Thank you for your cooperation on this. Reimnder: P2 Shirts on Monday: Don't forget to wear your P2 shirt each Monday to celebrate a new week of learning! NWEA Testing: This week we will be taking our math and reading NWEA assessments.
