Math:

We will have a chapter 3 test on Monday.  Tuesday we will start our next chapter multiplication and division.    

Be practicing multiplication facts.  Once they have memorized their facts it will help them with their work. 

Here are the steps and an example of a bar model with the statement sentence.

Step to a bar model

·        Draw the bar model

·        Fill in what you know on the model

·        Write and solve the algorithm to that matches the model

·        Fill in the black in the statement sentence with the answer

·        Does the answer make sense with what you were looking for

                              450 blue lollipops                                           275 more red lollipops

 

 

 

                                                                            ? = Red lollipops

There are ______725________ red lollipops.

  450

+275

 725


Remember to complete the addition math fact page everyday.

Grammar:
Review the definitions of the parts of speech.  This can be confusing when they are trying to match these on the test.

Composition:
We are starting to learn how to write a story using a Story Sequence Chart Outline. This Outline is the same as the KWO. the only difference is the KWO has three sections to it.

The Damocles and the king is broken up into four week.
Week one all they will write about is the characters and setting.
Week two just the conflict and plot. Week three is the climax, resolution and theme.
Week four we will combine all the rough drafts into a three paragraph story. We will not write a final draft until we combine all three weeks. Each week will have a checklist that needs to be completed for that section.

Monday - KWO and vocab
Tuesday - Oral Retell, Brainstorming page, review vocab
Wednesday - Review new concepts, review vocab, start RD
Thursday - Finish RD, parents proofread, review vocab, place RD in campus binder to be used next week.

Reading:
Continue reading "Soft Rain".  We will be completing a flap book on this book.  The flap book will be due on 10/13

Science:

Science presentation: Next Wednesday 9/29 the students will present a science presentation to the class.  They can pick any topic in chapters 1-3 that they have enjoyed learning about, what they learned about the topic, what about that topic intrigued them, how does this impact our life, or why they think God chose to design our world that way.  The presentation needs to be at least 4 sentence.  They need to write them down on note cards or a piece of paper.  They will turn in their notecards or paper with their presentation on it.  They can read their information however they will need to look at their notes and then look up to speak.  The same process as for an oral retell in IEW.  They can also bring an item in that goes with their presentation.   I have listed two examples below.  This will be a test grade. 

Tides: I have been to the beach and love playing in the ocean that comes on the beach. I learned that the reason the ocean that comes up on the beach is called a tide. The tide are caused by the moon. As the moon goes through the different phases the tides change the amount that they flow onto the beach. I think that it is amazing how God made the moon effect the oceans on Earth.

Killer Whales: Killer whales are my favorite animal. They are really called orcas. Orcas live in family groups their whole lives. They are amazing hunter. They are also very smart. I loved learning more about orcas or killer whales.




History:
We will be learning 12 key dates during the year.  We will be leaning 3 dates a quarter.  At the end of the quarter there will be a quiz.  The quiz will be accumulative as the year progresses.  The dates are listed in the campus binder under the science and history tab.

Quarter 1 dates
Charles V 15194
William the silent and a Dutch revolution 1582
Jamestown Colony Founded 1607

Memory:

Please spend time during your school day to work on quarter 1 poem, Rise Up O Men of God, geography map & song, Australia, and key dates. Feel free to get creative and practice these in the car, at bedtime, or during meals.
