Look What We’re Learning…

Language Arts: The students will

complete the entire writing process

to write a narrative composition on

their own. We will also begin a new

set of vocabulary words. Students

will complete a Frayer model for

each word to include definitions,

synonyms, antonyms, and a

picture.

Math: The students will learn about

fractions. They will use their fraction

kit to compare and order fractions.

They will also work with equivalent

fractions.
