Hello and welcome to Week 27! We're in Quarter 3: Facing Challenges. This unit asks us, "when should we stand up for other and ourselves?" We will continue discovering our answers with the start of our novel study, "Tangerine" by Edward Bloor. We're into the thick of Part Two discussing concepts like point-of-view, conflict, summarization techniques and symbolism. We are continuing with our Greek/Latin Root Words and have officially started book two! that means we're starting back with Unit 1: "The Good With The Bad." As always, we're working on our reading stamina with 10 minutes, daily, of free reading. Absences- If a student is absent, they are responsible for making up all missed work in a timely manner. This can be done through Canvas. There is a message on our Canvas homepage with specific directions on what to do when absent. Please make sure your student comes to class every day with their ELA folder, a charged Chromebook and their Chromebook charging cord. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Math - Mr. Collins
This week we will transfer our understanding of Integers and Rational Numbers to begin exploring concepts extending the coordinate plane. My students will locate, and plot ordered pairs of positive and negative rational numbers and determine the relationship between the signs of the pairs that are reflected across one or both axes. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Science- Ms. Parker

We will learn about how the geography of the region continued to be the perfect environment for successful civilizations. We will also learn about the culture and achievements of each civilization since the days of the Indus Valley Civilizations.
