Catch of the Week for September 14-18

Social Studies– Understand the major motives for early exploration to the new world (political, economic, and technological) and write 6 word memoirs for the explorers.

Reading– Students will read articles on kindness and write summaries, examine character traits finding evidence of traits and make inferences when reading “Don’t Laugh at Me!”

Language– Students will study the friendly letter format and purposes for the friendly letter

Math-We will be adding large numbers in a variety of ways.

Science– Students will practice classifying vertebrates and invertebrates

As we continue to read the novel, WONDER, we will be focusing on the precept: When choosing between being right and being kind, choose kind! Look for our responses to that precept on next week's blog.  This week we will be reading about how others have done "Random Acts of Kindness" and "Paid it Forward."  We will try to collect 100 RAK in our class for one week.  Can we do it? 
This is the focus schedule for the week:
Monday-Show kindness to your family members!
Tuesday-Show kindness to 4th graders, other than your friends!
Wednesday- Show kindness to people you don't know!
Thursday-Show kindness to anyone who works at OES, beside your teacher!
Friday- FREE choice!
