ROAD MAP
Week of April 28th
STAR Testing begins Tuesday
No spelling this week
LITERATURE: TRI reading groups will not meet during
the two-week STAR Testing window. Research on Greek gods and goddesses begins Monday. This will be ongoing and independent work. Bring your research to class.
READING LOG: do 3 entries only beginning Tuesday evening. Follow the guideline below.
Each log entry must be a personal response. Include the book’stitle and the pages read, i.e., pages 210 - 220. First write down what happens in the book in the part you have read. Then write your response to what happened. When you respond, write what you think, or how that part made you feel. You may choose to connect what happens in the book to something in your life or some other book you have read. Support by telling why you either think or feel the way you do. DEVELOP your idea.
MATH: 5th graders take your math journals home to study for the test Tuesday and your circle portfolios to work on until Friday.
HISTORY: geography of Greece; how Minoan and Mycenaean Civilizations are represented in myth; how Greek gods and goddesses reflect Greek culture.
SCIENCE: in class reading; lab if time permits.
