Dear Parents,

Curriculum Information for this Week:

Literacy: G5 students continued to write their fantasy stories. Students have begun drafting their fantasy stories. We are exploring fantasy picture books, independent reading books as well as a fantasy read aloud. 

Math: This week students begin working on Unit 5: Multiplying & Dividing Fractions. They are using a variety of manipulatives and also drawing models to show their thinking.

Unit of Study: Students have completed their “Chicken Leg Dissection!” lesson in the science labs. We will be choosing a system to research more deeply to present in our Bodies Museum as a final project.

For more information and ways to support your child please visit the Parent Learning Connection page.

Important Reminders/Information: (also see GLC Updates)
No school this Thursday and Friday for the students. It’s the Chinese New Year long weekend.
