Weekly Objectives for February 5th- February 9th

Here is our objectives for this week:

Reading:

RL 4.5 – Explain major differences between poems, drama, and prose, and refer to the structural elements of poems (e.g., verse, rhythm, meter) and drama (e.g., casts of characters, settings, descriptions, dialogue, stage directions) when writing or speaking about a text.

Writing:

W.4.4: Produce clear and coherent writing (including multiple paragraph texts) in which the development and organization are appropriate to task, purpose, and audience.

Math:

4.MD.5 Recognize angles as geometric shapes that are formed wherever two rays share a common endpoint, and understand concepts of angle measurement:
Ability to recognize angles as geometric shapes where two rays share a common endpoint.
4.MD.5.a An angle is measured with reference to a circle with its center at the common endpoint of the rays, by considering the fraction of the circular arc between the points where the two rays intersect the circle. An angle that turns through 1/360 of a circle is called a “one-degree angle,” and can be used to measure angles.”

Social Studies:

4-C1.0.3 Describe the purposes of government as identified in the preamble of the Constitution. 4-C3.0.2 Give examples of powers granted to the federal government

Science:

  • Students begin to explore how large masses of rock break into smaller pieces. They tumble rocks and freeze water to see how these two types of physical weathering can break rocks.
  • Students plan and conduct an investigation to test rocks for interaction with “acid rain.” They see that some rocks (limestone and marble) are very susceptible to acid rain, one form of chemical weathering, but other rocks (basalt and sandstone) are unaffected.
  • We will be taking a science quiz sometimes by the end of this week.

Spelling words:

Group 1 :

interact, improper, miscommunication, antiwar, import, export, invisible, autobiography, mislead, disagree, fraction, improper fraction, equivalent, numerator, denominator

Group 2:

Vowel pairs oi, oy-   oil, soil, moist, hoist, toy, joy, royal, soy, broil, boil, again, round, give, once, open

Academic Vocabulary:

structural element – rhythm – meter – stanza – verse – effect
