Livingston Christian Schools 5th Grade April 26-30
Bible: After 209 years, Israel was conquered by the Assyrians while Judah survived 345 years before they were overpowered by Babylon. Some time later, the Persian Empire came to power. During this time, Ezra was born. He was from the line of Levites so he was a priest. As an adult, he had a deep desire to return to the home of his fathers. With permission from the Persian king, Ezra returned to Jerusalem to see what he could do about the ruins of God's temple. Ezra was a true, godly leader who helped many return to the Promised Land and begin the process of rebuilding the temple. Students will have Quiz 23 on Tuesday, April 27 and also write about the message of Proverbs 3:1-12 on Friday, April 30.
Spelling: List 29 words are mathematics terms. Spelling sentences are due Thursday, April 29. The spelling pre-test and final test will be set for Wednesday and Friday, respectively.
fraction, numerator, denominator, divisible, rectangle, cancellation, decimal, digit, formula, diameter, circular, zeros, hundredths, graph, triangle, quotient, algebra, multiplication, equivalent, equation, ninetieth, intersect, averaging, Ephesians, Philippians, approximate, estimate, arithmetic, multiple, geometry, octagon
Language Arts: The reading selection this week is entitled Death of an Iron Horse, pgs. 178-187. The comprehension quiz is due Thursday, April 29. This story depicts a historical event in which the Cheyenne Indians attacked a train traveling through Nebraska in the 1860's.
Writing Workshop time will provide time for students to begin taking notes for the science research project.
Grammar lessons will focus on the part of speech called the pronoun.
Math: Review
History: Test on Chapter 9 Monday, April 26. Notes were provided.
Science: Ideas about the seasons and the sun were sometimes unusual in days past. Today, with modern equipment we can better understand the reason for the seasons and the position of the sun in space. We will explore some of the false ideas scientists believed years ago.
We are learning a specific way to take notes while reading. This technique will assist students in writing their research project report in the coming weeks. As you have probably noticed, we are not on schedule for the science research project. That's ok. I'll give updated due dates to the students as each piece needs to be completed. Remember, most of the project is to be completed at school. You should have your data tables, log book, and three resources ready to share with me by Wednesday, April 28.
Other:
*Standardized Testing this week!!! Every morning this week, from 8:30-11:30 will be set aside for testing. Eat a nutritious breakfast and get to bed early so your brain is ready to focus.
*Final analogy meet set for Friday, April 30.
