October 21th-October 25th

Here is a look at our curriculum next week!

Science: In Science, the students will be starting to create their marble coasters.  They will get strips of poster board and they have to make a track that will hold a marble from point A to B.  They will be working in groups to do this.  Towards the end of the week they will be working on roller coaster tycoon to build their own amusement park.
 
Reading: We are starting our Non-fiction unit in reading.  Everything that we read in class, for both reading and RtI reading will be entirely non-fiction.  We will spend Monday and Tuesday discussing what non-fiction is, the two types of non-fiction text (expository and narrative), and viewing multiple examples of each.  Wednesday during this time is our Tool of the Week for Zones of Regulation.  Thursday (a shortened schedule day) and Friday, we will be completing an in-class activity where students will be identifying non-fiction text features.
 
RtI Reading: Students will be reading a non-fiction text in RtI Reading all week.  Each day students will complete a different activity using this text, which ranges from comprehension questions to vocabulary matching, etc. 
 
LA: Students will receive new spelling words this week.  This will be the final week that spelling will be completed in school.  All spelling packets and sentences will be homework beginning on October 28th.

Math: Students will continue to work in their individual curriculum this week.
