Hello!
We are back! Hope everyone had a nice two weeks. We spent this week settling back in to the routine.
In math reviewed addition, subtraction, and multiplication. Everyone was fine with most of it, except two digit by two digit multiplication. This strategy has been a challenge for about half the class.
In social studies we started our natural resource unit, and learned about different resources we use for energy and electricity. We talked about renewable and non renewable resources, the pros and cons on a pipeline, and worked on a personal project about energy.
In language arts we wrote about our holiday break. Sounds like most were a lot of fun.
In science we discussed complex machines, and looked at some Rube Goldberg machine videos, as next week we will be creating our own.
In art we painted some snowy towns, as there is a prediction for next week we may get snow.
Next week we will dive into division in math, start some creative writing, create some Rube Goldberg machines, and learn about mining as a resource.
Have a good weekend, and see you Monday.
