This Week in Class

So far, our Junior Bloggers of the Week have been doing a great job! Students, if you haven't had time to comment on someone's post, please do so! This week, we've been getting ready for the CRCT by reviewing test-taking skills. The learning hasn't stopped, however; we are still learning new things! In reading, we are continuing our figurative language unit with the chapter book, Punished! In math, we've moved on to algebra and are learning how to describe and extend numeric and geometric patterns. In language arts, we have been learning about singular and plural possessive nouns. These can be tricky at first for students! In social studies, our study of Cesar Chavez has come to an end, and we are reviewing map skills.

Challenge Time!

Challenge #1: Today, we read this quote from Professor Wordsworth in Punished!: "Why are there two ways to spell 1, and three ways to spell 2, but only one way to spell 3?" For coins in the classroom, what are the spellings of the words that the professor is talking about?

Challenge #2: Extend this pattern: 3, 5, 25, 27, _____, _____, _____

Have a great week!
