Homework and Objectives January 21-25th

Literacy: Is fluency and grammar testing this week! Students should be using their English textbook to study. 

Writing: Continuing to work on our opinion writing. 

Numeracy: Students are continuing with their understanding of fractions. This week we are learning to find common denominators so we can compare and list fractions having the same denominator. 

Science: We will be studying ecosystems for the next couple of weeks as well as completing an in class project. We are learning to understand what makes an ecosystem, how it is affected, the vocabulary to describe it and food webs within them!

I’ve attached the RUBRIC (click on rubric for the attachment) and overall EXPECTATIONS (click on expectations for the attachment) of the project. This will be done in class but there is a possibility students will want to get some items outside of school to add and make it extra special! 

Social studies: Focus on our European and African connections. Students should be continuing to working on their Caribs and Arawaks at home.
