End of May

ELA:  Finishing State Testing...Book Club (lit. circles) are done...Starting a new class Novel The Giver
          Most of the time we will read The Giver together in class but once or twice a week students             will be assigned a Chapter to read for Homework!

Soc. St:  We have started studying Ancient China.  We have started with Geography and Isolation. We will then move on to The Great Wall, The Silk Road, and then the Dynasties.  Each student is building their own "interactive map" to add information as they learn. We are using Thinglink!
