Last week we worked on being able to find reasons and evidence in a non-fiction piece. We have also been working on writing a good paragraph. Soon we will begin our science unit on the human body. We will be studying bones, joints, and muscles.
Our class is doing an amazing job learning how to multiply multiple digits. I am so proud of them all. The biggest thing many students need to do now is get those fact down pat.

Our reading skill is to find evidence and infer the questions Mrs.Gilbert is giving us.The story we are reading in class is Abduction.I recommend Abduction to 4-6 graders.Our math skill is to multiply 1 digit numbers by multi-digit numbers.In social studies we are making pamphlets about living history farms.some other fun stuff we are doing is that in p.e. we are learning what skills you need to play soccer.In music we are doing part of a play.In art we are doing messed up faces.Like picasio's work.
A lot has happened in the last couple of weeks. We have been on a field trip to Living History Farms. It was such a great day. The weather could not have been better and the the farm was amazing. Be sure to check out our pictures on this site. Students were very excited about going and they were extremely well behaved. I was so proud of all of them.
Conference were this past week. It was wonderful seeing and meeting all of the parents. I hope that if anyone has any questions after meeting with me, you will not hesitate contacting me. We are starting new units in reading and math. In reading we are working on asking questions, inferencing, and interpretation of a text. In math we are beginning multiplication of 1 digit times multiple digits and 2 times 2 digit multiplication. In reading we are describing in depth an event using details.The story we are reading is Abduction.In math we are learning to fluently add and subtract to one million.In social studies we are learning about geography.Fun stuff we are learning is that in p.e. we are doing fitness tests.In music we are learning the song Octopuses Garden.In art we are doing Mendelian.
Well, as you can see, I have not posted an entry for this year.I am looking for students who would like to write this blog each week. They can write about what we have been doing in class or perhaps a story they have written. I hope, as parents, you will encourage your child to write a blog post.
Any parents accompanying us to the Drake Basketball game tomorrow should plan to meet us at the Knapp Center at 9:30 am. We will be leaving to head back to school by 1:30pm. Don't forget your sack lunch! See you in the morning.
some fun stuff we`ve done this week is were reading trapped and Jordan the main character got bought and it turns out that who he got bought from was a under ground rail road worker and he was going to try to free Jordan and then we had to stop but we also learned a new way to solve a double digit multipication problem in math we`re also working on geometry and measurement but we`re mainly working on the line of symmetry which is so say we had a square we would have to find out how many ways we could fold it and it has to be a mirror image and for science yesterday we watched a video and we learned what abiotic means it means non living like soil grass tables and the ground and biotic means living like animals humans insects reptiles
are awesome reading skill this week this making an inference. the story we are doing for making an inference is dear mr.winston. on wensday we went on a filled trip to the hall of pride and the down town historical building. it was really fun in the two places. in math we are learning unit 2 math skills. and in eco hour we are leaning what plants can/cant make it in an frost.i want to give a happy birthday to David and Kadee because there b-days are coming up!!! what a awesome week at Mrs. Gilbert's classroom.
We had the best field trip today. The Iowa Hall of Pride is just awesome. So many famous Iowans. It really makes you proud to be an Iowan, and the State Historical Building really gave us perspective on how Iowa started and where we are today. Check out the pictures from our trip under the Celebration tab. the picture to the left is of Cooper playing a jumprope game at Hall of Pride. |
