Students will be introduced to direct objects and take a brief quiz tomorrow over Monday’s lesson.
Students will complete a weekly literature summary from last week’s reading of Where the Red Fern Grows, and continue to read the next three chapters of the book.
Students will begin their 100 point project this week based on Where the Red Fern Grows. Look for an information packet coming home! Students are given a number of mini-assignments work various point values ranging from 5-40 points, and must complete any assignments whose value adds up to 100 points. This will be primarily the student’s responsibility, and they will have until December 7th to complete it. I will give students some time in class to work on this, but it will primarily be homework.
This week in science, students will be introduced to the structure of cells. They will extend on the differences between Prokaryotes (cells with no nuclei) and Eukaryotes (cells with nuclei), a concept touched upon in our Classification unit. On Tuesday, students will write a short compare-contrast paragraph about Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes.
This week in History, students will continue our unit on “Golden Age to Glorious Revolution”. We will discuss the cowardice and execution of Charles I and the reign of Oliver Cromwell. Students will get to write an article describing the reasons behind the execution of Charles I. The rough draft is due on Tuesday, 11/28 and the final draft rewritten on construction paper is due 11/30. This assignment is normally given over 2 days, and students have 2 non-R&R days to complete the rough draft. Please note that there will be a 50 states location test on 11/21. Here are some online resources for students to use to study: https://online.seterra.com/en/vgp/3003
