Science:
This week in science we have been busy preparing for the science fair next week. We are currently doing a unit on motion and movement. We are conducting an experiment on how cars move and how to make them move fast. The students brainstormed ideas for their cars. Each group made predictions about what would make their car move quickly. They designed their cars and began to build them this week. Next week we will race them!
During the trip this week the children got a hands-on experience with different interactive exhibits that focus on motion and movement.
ELA:
We focused on linking verbs in grammar. The students are also continuing to focus on persuasive writing.
Math:
We finished our unit on telling time. We are starting to do a general overview of all the concepts we have done in the last term. Additionally, we are focusing on more complex patterns and numbers up to 120.
Social Studies:
We are continuing our unit on past versus present. The students really enjoyed sharing their baby pictures this week.
Please make sure you check you e-mail for instruction on the timeline assignment that is due next Thursday.
Have a great weekend!
