Hello!
Hope everyone had a good long weekend, mine ended up being longer due to sickness.
Tuesday apparently did not go well, but we managed to catch everything up on Wednesday and had a discussion on how to behave when I am not here.
In math this week we have been reviewing out place value and whole number unit. We will be having our final on Monday (I hope), covering place value, rounding, addition, and subtraction.
In social studies we looked at different types of governments from around the world: democracy, oligarchy, monarchy, and dictatorship. We reviewed our work and took a test on Friday. We will see who studied.
In science we started reviewing energy, as an introduction to simple machines. We focused on potential and kinetic energy, and started building paper rollercoaster. They will be completed next week.
In language arts we practiced our proofreading, and took a test on our skills. Students had to correct a paragraph about thr book fair.
Speaking of the book fair, it is next Monday, so don’t forget to bring your money in.
Next week is a short one, with the half day Thursday, and a pro d on Friday. We will be finishing our math unit and our government unit, look at goal setting, and finish off those rollercoaster.
Have a good weekend and see you next week.
