Quarter 3, Week 5

Hello!

We have another full week ahead of us! On Thursday, we will have our first Arizona History quiz, which will cover Arizona geography, flora, and fauna. On Friday, we will have a Chemistry test. We've been really enjoying our Chemistry unit, since it has provided a lot of opportunities to hone our scholars' observation and prediction skills through experiments and demonstrations.

In Math, we've started to explore how to manipulate decimals. Our scholars have become fairly comfortable with decimals over the past week and this week, they will be putting their knowledge to the test by adding and subtracting decimals. In Literature, we will be reading a good bit of Prince Caspian, in preparation for our final Prince Caspian test next week.

Ms. Walls and I are very excited about what we're learning in Language Arts. Our students are writing a 3-paragraph essay over the course of this and next week. They will be learning how to edit their own work and how to provide good peer review in class. We're so looking forward to reading everyone's finished product!

Have a great week!
