History
This week in history we will continue our study of the Middle Ages. We will focus on the rise of feudalism and examine the relationship between kings, lords, knights and serfs. Students will study heraldry and why it the importance to knights in the Middle Ages. Students will also make their own coat of arms using symbols and designs of the Middle Ages.
ELA
We will introduce the literary concept of theme during literature and continue describing the characters that are introduced in the chapters of Prince Caspian we will read this week. On Friday, we will have the spelling/phonogram test and the students will individually recite the poem "The Violet".
Math
In math this week, we'll continue our study of fractions. We will discuss comparing and ordering fractions with different denominators and adding and subtracting fractions with the same denominator. We will also continue practicing putting fractions in simplest form. This is a key skill in fractions, one that requires fluency in multiplication and division facts. If possible, please review these math facts with your child at home!
Science
We will go over the study guide for the second geology test on Monday and take the test on Tuesday. Then we began the last unit of geology with volcanoes.
