Mrs. Eleni Koliopoulos
Good Evening Room 209 Students and Families, I hope you all had a nice weekend and were able to enjoy the beautiful winter wonderland that came our way! CPS has formally stated that the district will continue with remote learning as negotiations continue. Teachers and staff look forward to continuing our work, teaching, and keeping our students learning. We will continue to follow the schedule we have been following all year with the students in our homeroom. Business will be as usual for Room 209, until further notice :). Notes and Reminders:
Weekly Overview of Assignments In Reading we will begin our Mystery Unit! We will review what students know about mysteries, elements of a mystery, and important vocabulary. This week the class will read and complete paired activities about the mystery, The Loch Ness Monster. Small group reading will focus on making inferences as they read. During Writing, students will be introduced to our next writing assignment-Narrative Mysteries. This week students will create characters they will use in their stories, complete a plot mountain, and learn to write a luring lead. In Math students will begin Unit 5- Fraction and Mixed Number Computation; Measurement. Students will explore decomposing fractions into sums of fractions and add fractions with like and unlike denominators to solve number stories. This week we will circle back to Science. In this unit, students will complete lessons that help develop the idea that sound is an actual thing, a wave of vibrations traveling through the air. Students will make the connection between sounds and vibration during this week’s activities. Homework

Students have the opportunity to add stories, pictures, fun facts or talents they would like to share with the class.
