Literacy
This week students will finish their novels from the books Boy in the Girl's Bathroom and
the Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane. Students will take a quiz on Friday to review
important details on the text they were assigned.
In writing we will begin a new unit on informational writing. Students will select a topic that
they enjoyed learning about from the history of Chicago, and conduct more research on that
topic. Students will then use this research to create an informational book to teach others about
what they have learned. This week students choose the top 3 topics that interest them and
gather information notes at school and home.

this week. They will observe four different types of soils and rocks, and use evidence from their
investigation to explain the effects of physical and chemical weathering.
