What are we learning?

Math

In math, we will dive into geometry by learning about the attributes of 2D shapes. We will learn what a polygon is and sort 2D and 3D shapes. 

Language Arts

In language arts, we will be exploring summarization and discussing its differences from retelling. We will practice summarizing with our nonfiction books. We will also introduce biographies and the differences from other nonfiction reading. In addition, we will continue discussing using context clues with the shift to academic language.

Science

In Science, we will investigate the relationship between the Sun, Earth, and Moon. We will model this relationship and the new vocabulary words of rotate and revolve. 

Social Studies

In Social Studies learners will discuss reasons to save and explain the benefit of a savings plan, including for college.
