WINTER CONCERT
WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 15
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 begin the unit on Arizona history.
Science: Over the next two weeks, students will study meteorology. They have
studied the water cycle. 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. Next, they will read about the atmosphere.
Language Arts: 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,
followed by conjunctions. Spalding will bring more words and more markings.
Math: Students will continue working on fractions. There will be nightly
homework.
