Week 1 Overview

 Hi Parents,

Please make sure that ALL BOOKS except the novel book and language handbook are covered. This is extremely important. Also please bring in a pack of tissues for English class if you haven't already done so. 

Grammar- We started with lesson 1 on the present progressive vs present simple. They said they learned this in 4th grade already so we are just adding a little bit more in 5th grade. They seem to be having no issues with it. There will be a grammar quiz next Friday. 

Math- We started estimation and approximation. I reviewed with them the name of each digits place before we started learning how to round. 

Science - We started with respiratory system. We discussed about the nose, windpipe, air tubes and air sacs. 

Reading - We read softcover Journeys this week about a boy going to school at sea and how he was reluctant at first. Eventually he realizes school at sea isn't so bad because of new friends and interesting things. 

Peace out

Mr. Richard
