November 8th - A Week in Review

WLE Free Little Library

The WLE library is now open for business.  If your child would like to borrow a book from the Little Library, they can.  This was a gift from our 5th graders last year and it is now available for your child!

Science - Transfer of Energy

In Science we have been doing some really sophisticated thinking about how waves transfer energy.  Please have your child explain the vocabulary that we learned this week.  I have included pictures to help your child with their explanation.

Wave Length
Amplitude
Peak
Trough
Also consider asking your child why there is no sound in space:)

This whole unit has been about energy transfer.  We will be completing the unit in the coming weeks and the BA is scheduled for November 30th.

Math BA - 

The Math BA will be on Wednesday (11/14) next week.  Today, your child identified areas that they would like to practice from now until Wednesday.  We specifically worked on how to write problems for ourselves to complete.  This is probably one of the best ways to practice.  They can ask for help from you, but writing problems is a skill that requires understanding and can help cement learning concepts for your child.

Halloween Pictures:

Please enjoy Halloween pictures from our Halloween celebration last week.
