Week in Review 2/13/17-2/17/17

It's been a whale of a week over here at Marshall. Science fair, kindness week, and Valentine's Day! A three day weekend certainly is in order. Here's what else went on in rooms 28 and 30:


This Week in Academics:

• We learned about weathering, erosion, and deposition through expert's readings.
• We continued practicing some fraction basics
• We decomposed fractions with addition sentences, multiplication sentence, number bonds, and tape diagrams.
• We used manipulatives and multiplication by a version of one to create equivalent fractions.
• We continued reading Sophia's War...only three reading sessions left!
• We learned about prepositions from our favorite French cow, Moo-Moo.
• We practiced writing narratives including various types of conflict.

Looking Ahead:

• No School Monday! (Presidents' Day)
• We'll have expert's homework on Wednesday and Thursday night next week. (None Tuesday)
• The fifth grade ski trip is a week from Monday, on February 27th.
• Be sure to continue asking around about gear to borrow!
