Week of December 2nd

Happy Monday Everyone, 

     I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving break. Time off to spend with family and friends. We will be on Winter Break in 3 short weeks. In the meantime our schedule is full of activities. Please see the Important Dates section below.

     Because of the passing of Joe Dewaele, we had a school counselor come in to speak with the students today.  

     As we draw closer to mid-year, please take this time to talk with your child a supply refresh. Many students have run out of glue and pencils. Some students have also managed to misplace their scissors.

     This week in math students will learn how to use a protractor to both measure angles and draw angles of a specified degree. We will take a quiz on Thursday that will cover everything that we discussed so far in Module 4. 

    

     This week in science we will finish our unit on energy. Students will take their test on Wednesday. We will then begin working on a unit on heat energy. Students will learn what heat is and how moves. We will learn that heat moves from warmer objects/places to cooler objects/places until the temperture of both objects/places are the same. We will learn that heat is transfered in 3 ways. Conduction-heat transfer when objects touch each other. Convection-heat transfer through liquids or gases. Radiation-heat transferred without matter to carry it. 



Have a great week,
Ms. Johnson
