Sunday Nov 7

This past week we worked on:

LA- The students have completed a descriptive paragraph using all the elements of good writing that we have worked on this year. This includes a great opening sentence, descriptive words, use of our senses and use of similes.

Math- Students used their skills in pattern recognition to solve a variety of word problems. We discussed a 4 step problem solving plan  with which students can analyze a problem.

Science- Students viewed a special presentation on the life cycle of a trout hosted by The Bow Habitat Station. They learned many facts about the life of a trout and how people are helping to keep the fish population in good shape.

Social- Students are completing their brochure on the geography of Peru. This includes regional knowledge as well as directional components.

Here is this week's homework.
