All About Shapes

Dearest Comets,

We have wrapped up our Geometry unit and have learned a whole lot.  Just for fun, please tell us what your favorite polygon is.  Don't forget to describe what they look like using the Math Expert Language such as sides, vertices, line segments, etc.  What is real life is made up with that shape?

Warmly,
Mrs. Nguyen

Give Thanks...

Dearest Comets,

Can you believe it is already November?!   I love reading your descriptive paragraphs about November and I am so proud of the writers and artists you have become!! <3

Many of you mentioned that November brings friends and family together and reminds us all to give thanks for all of our blessings.  So, the question for this week is... What are you thankful for?  Don't forget to help your readers understand and picture your thoughts by describing who or what it is that you are thankful for and explaining why!

Warmly,

Mrs. Nguyen

Dear Comets,

We know that good readers pause to recap or recall what have been read so far to keep track of their thinking.  As we are getting ready to move onto Part II of Hugo Cabret, let's "pause and recap!"

I hope you find it helpful using keynotes to record the key elements and organize your thought.  I cannot wait to read everyone's responses.

Happy Reading!

Love,
Mrs. Nguyen
