In humanities we are starting our new unit titled Inspired by the Sea. During the next six weeks, students will read stories, poetry, and informational texts that are inspired by a love of or curiosity about the sea. They will also create a poetry anthology and an informational poster on a sea animal that inspires them. 

In writing students will be writing imaginary narratives using descriptive details, dialogue, thoughts and feelings, action, and written in sequence. They will learn about paragraphs and when to switch to a new one. Writers will also focus on writing strong sentences including nouns, pronouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs. 

In math students are challenging their level of personal ability while using Khan Academy.
