Friday Afternoon Post (March 9, 2018)

Howdy Folks!

This is what we've been doing in class this week:

Writer's Workshop

We've utilized skills and strategies to pen a persuasive piece. Out persuasive piece contains a strong thesis/claim, reasons that support our claim, and we've also elaborated on our reasons in order to win over our audience!



We've also been doing research to prep ourselves for our next opinion/persuasive piece!




Reading

We've started to read By The Great Horn Spoon which is set during the Gold Rush of 1849! Combined with additional resources, we're finding out what the social climate was like during the mid 1800's in America!



Math

This week we practiced using decomposing/partial products in order to divide and we jumped into multiplying fractions as well!




And that's a wrap folks! Cheers, and have a good one!
