Welcome Back and Welcome Spring!
Mat- Motion Geometry is this week. We will be studying symmetry, translations, reflections, rotations, tessellations, and much more! This is a fun chapter, but very vocabulary heavy! We will incorporate these words into our word study this week to help us better comprehend the vocabulary. Also, the Geometry pictionary packet is due tomorrow!
Reading-This week will will review some test taking strategies such as looking back in the text and underlining important information. There will be no reading response this week.
Writing-More poetry fun this week! We will be looking at some more structured poetry such as Cinquian We will also have more time to explore more free verse. Writing homework tonight will be to bring in an ordinary object to write a poem about. Ideas might be an apple, banana, favorite blanket, stuffed animal, etc...Please no toys.
