This week we are going to learn about compound sentences. You may already be familiar with them, but we are going make sure we know all about them! Watch this video to make sure you understand what compound sentences are. You're going to have to practice your reading skills because the video doesn't talk to you. Sorry!

STEM
Hello everyone! Last Friday, you brainstormed ways to prevent a landslide. (If you didn't do that activity from Friday, make sure you do it today!) Sometime this week, I would like you build some sort of model that demonstrates your plan to prevent a landslide. I know that you all have different materials at your house, so use whatever you have. Do you have a sandbox or a patch of dirt in your backyard? Use that! Do you have potting soil and a disposable baking tin? Ask your parents if you can use that! Have a paper and markers? Use that to draw a really neat picture! Use your imagination! When you've make your model, have you or a parent email me a picture. I will grade these for completion on Saturday :) Feel free to reach out if you need help brainstorming how to make your model.
Here are some examples to help you out:
