-ELA: We will be focusing on how to use text evidence to answer questions. The students need to continue practicing how to quote accurately (C) when they prove their answers. The evidence is the support or detail.

-Grammar: On Thursday, August 26, students will have a quiz on conjunctions. They need to know examples (FANBOYS), function (link 2 ideas), and meanings (they have a cheat sheet).

-Social Studies: Theodore Roosevelt’s role in the expansion of America and the impact of the Panama Canal.
–Science: *NOTE: Science will be assessed on 8/27. 

Earth Science

S5E1. Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information to identify surface features on the Earth caused by constructive or destructive processes.

1. Construct an argument supported by scientific evidence to identify surface features (examples could include deltas, sand dunes, mountains, volcanoes) as being caused by constructive or destructive processes (examples could include deposition, weathering, erosion, and impact of organisms).
2. Develop simple interactive models to collect data that illustrate how changes in surface features are/were caused by constructive or destructive processes.
3. Ask questions to obtain information on how technology is used to limit &/ or predict the impact of constructive &, destructive processes. (Clarification statement: Examples could include seismological studies, flood forecasting (GIS maps), engineering/construction methods &; materials, & Infrared/satellite imagery.)

-Math: *NOTE: Math will be assessed on 8/26

MGSE5.OA.1 Use parentheses, brackets, or braces in numerical expressions, and evaluate expressions with these symbols.

Understand the place value system.
