ELA: This week our spelling words are words containing the suffix: -let. Example words include: owlet, piglet, starlet, and leaflet. We are continuing our reading in “Shiloh” this week. Our learning targets will focus on describing in detail a character, setting, or event in a story drawing on specific details in the text. Check out these practice activities:

1. Elements of Story practice

Science:
This week we will take our energy/electricity/magnetism unit test on Friday, March 31st. Students were given study guides before spring break to begin studying for the test. Students will also be bringing home practice tests, flash cards, and review pages this week to prepare. Since we are not learning any new material, there are no new activities on the blog this week. Students may go back to any week between the beginning of January and today to complete review activities for the test.
