This week was all about collaboration! Our final reading unit was launched on Monday. Students were split up into small research groups. Readers got themselves ready for the research work by first looking over easier texts to get an over view of their topics and to search for subtopics. In math we began our last unit of the year on, geometry. Students worked together to learn cooperatively about shapes and then shared their learning with the class. During writing workshop students wrote 5 paragraph persuasive essays about their spring vacations. We began a new unit, "Cinderella around the world." We will be investigating the question, "Why has Cinderella captured the hearts of people all around the world?" Finally, this class ROCKED their first SBAC test session on Thursday.
