Elementary
April / May 2016

ELA

Students are reviewing ELA skills from the year. We will be


doing EOG prep rotations beginning in May.
For writing, students will be writing animal research reports and
designing zoo habitat dioramas for their creatures.

Math

Students are working on a unit related to decimals. They will


represent decimals in word form, model form, and fraction form
as well as comparing and ordering decimals. We will end quarter
four with a unit on measurement where students will convert
metric systems and convert customary systems of measurement
while learning to record on line plots.
Science (Goldsmith/Varnell Homerooms)
Students will be working on their units about animal studies
where we will discuss habitats and characteristics of animals in
relation to nutrition needed for animal survival. We will have the
opportunity to observe live animals both in the science lab and at
the NC Zoo!
Social Studies (Varnell/Goldsmith Homerooms)
Students will be beginning their unit on North Carolina culture.
All students will participate in our culture fair where they are
researching a topic of their choice and presenting to their peers at
our NC Culture Fair.

Homework Club

It will run through 04/28 and we will celebrate on 04/29. Please
continue to encourage your child to complete their homework and
be on the lookout for the Sign Up Genuis to send in celebration
goodies for the homework club celebration.
