We will discuss this project in class tomorrow! 

Get ready to pick an ecosystem, do some research USING THE WEBSITES FROM THE WEBQUEST LIST ONLY!

While researching, you will be filling out your travel guide.

You will be responsible for, and graded on the travel list and writing the two paragraph narrative, however the PowerPoint, brochure (using Microsoft Word template), or VoiceThread (not available through me at this time) are optional and extra credit!

What's Going On!

• Curriculum News:  This week, we will continue to read Esperanza Rising, focusing on comprehension, group discussions, vocabulary, and depth and complexity.  In math, we are wrapping up fractions, and will be starting area and perimeter by the end of the week.  We will be writing an informational article on how to save water.  We will continue to learn about the Gold Rush!    
• A GIANT thank you to all the parents and volunteers who helped make Gold Rush Day a success.  Even with the unexpected high winds, the kids had a wonderful time.  We couldn't have done it without you.  Thanks again!  Check out pictures on the PHOTOS page.
