Math:  Students will be working more with learning their facts using manipulatives, the Ipad/SMART board, and games.  We will also learn about polygons this week and students will use the geoboard app on the Ipads to create polygons.  Students will also identify patterns on a hundred chart and then create their own patterns on a hundred chart that other students will then have to guess their pattern.

Science:  We are working on our Creature Feature inquiry unit.  Students have started learning about the different features of animals.  We will be going back to the computer lab this week to create a new animal.  This week we will begin learning about mammals, reptiles, fish, birds, and amphibians and classifying different animals as one of these.  In our innovation lab we will be working more with our worms and completing different experiments with them.
