WORDS THEIR WAY

Log in to Pearson Realize. Continue to practice the sorts for your new words. If you feel like you have completed the activities with enough practice, feel free to “turn in all.”  You will still have tomorrow if you need additional time.

ELA- THEME & BOOK CLUBS

Today you will be diving deeper into one of the Bingo board activities that focuses on theme. Watch the video and, if you would like, choose activity #17 to connect your book club book theme to other books, movies and t.v. shows with the same theme. Use the Shareable Graphic Organizer to help you formulate the theme of your book. 

If you choose a different BINGO board activity for today, just be sure to pick something different than what you have chosen before. Post your final product to Seesaw, explaining which book you are reading and identify the name and number of the activity you completed. 

This is the Seesaw activity you will see. Post your Bingo Board project to this activity.
MATH- adding and subtracting liters and milliliters

Watch this video below. Make sure you have a pencil and paper handy so that you may work alongside the video. At times, you will be asked to “pause” the video to think through an idea or “pause” the video to work through the problem to arrive at your next step or solution. If your answer does not match the solution on the video, you may want to watch that portion again to see what your misunderstanding was.

smart fact

On this day in 1846 first printed copies of “Poems” by Emily, Charlotte and Anne Brontë, were  published under pseudonyms (pen name) of Acton, Currer and Ellis Bell. Women often had to write using a man’s name because it wasn’t considered proper for a woman to be working in the world of literature. Even the wildly popular Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling was asked to NOT use her name, Joanne Rowling, but instead her initials to attract more male readers. Check out this website to learn about J.K. Rowling’s other pen name and books that she published using that name.
