November 4, 2013

Welcome to a new week!  We had a fun week last week and look forward to this coming week.  It will be an exciting week as we wrap up our Egypt unit.

Literature/Riggs/Reading: This week we get to study the Fairy Tale of Pinocchio.  As we read and learn this story, we will have some new vocabulary words that we will be learning.  Additionally, the students will work on organizing the beginning, middle, and end of stories and then write a summary about the story. We will also talk about our Core Virtue of honesty and how it relates to the story.

History: We have had a fun time as we studied Egypt.  This week will be the end of the unit.  We will talk about the different gods that the Egyptians worshiped.  We will also have a fun activity about an Egyptian animal, our Egyptian party, and we will assemble our Egypt books.

Science: We are starting a new unit this week on the Human Body.  The Human Body unit is always a fun one as the students get to build some life-size models of the human body.  You will start seeing these models hanging in the walls sometime this week.  We will be focusing on the Skeletal system this week and adding that to our bodies.

Reminders:
