WINTER CONCERT
WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 16
The next two weeks in class:
History: This week in history, students will close
out the Middle Ages unit with the study of Joan of Arc and relevant literature,
as well as learning about the Black Death and the role it played in Europe
toward the end of the Middle Ages. Students will take a test next week on
chapters 17-21, for which they have the study guides. Next week, students will briefly
survey the birth and culture of Islam and compare it to what they've learned
happened concurrently in Europe during the Middle Ages.
Science: Over the next two weeks, students will study
meteorology. They will begin by learning about the water cycle. Then, students
will consider how limited earth's drinkable water considering the globe's
surface is mostly water. The student's study will then transition to clouds,
which will include a demonstration on how clouds formulate and a foldable
about the different types of clouds.
Language Arts: Over
the next two weeks, students will continue reading about Robin Hood, his merry
men, and the adventures they encounter. Is Maid Marian his true love? We will
find out. In grammar, students will master pronouns, and the understood you.
Spalding will bring more words and more markings.
Math: Students will continue working on fractions. There will be nightly
homework.
