This is so true with what are student's are working on this week. We are pushing them to be critical thinkers in all subject areas, and where they land is always better than where they began:)

This week in room 34.....

Science: We are wrapping up matter and chemistry unit with an investigation and MAP prep style questions. On Thursday, we will begin our unit on the Circulatory System.   

Writing: We are working on drafting our argument essay. Checkout this padlet to see what each student is researching! They are working on adding powerful quotations, balancing evidence with analysis, and publishing their essay. We will share these out on next Tuesday, March 6th.  

Math: Our chapter 10 test on multiplying and dividing fractions is tomorrow.   We will start chapter 11 this week, which is measurement. This week will focus on converting customary units of length.

Reading: We are focusing on argument and advocacy, researching debatable issues. Every student chose a debatable issue and are researching both sides of the topic. We are focusing on looking at texts for relevant information and be able to think and wonder as they read.
