In The Classroom... 4/18/18
We've been reviewing in Math. The kids had fun working in teams and competing in Jeopardy. We will begin two digit addition and measurement when we track back in. The kids can log onto Front Row Ed to practice these skills over break if they want to. Our class code is gowerk.
We did a really cool experiment in Science with unwashed sand. Ask your child what happened when water was added to it.
For Social Studies we got to Skype with the Buffalo Bill Center in Wyoming to learn about the Plain Indians and how they lived long ago. The kids found out how they took care of their needs and why the buffalo were so important to their people. Ask them about this!
I am not assigning any work over track out other than for the kids to work on their Animal Research project and to read.
Make sure to read over the Notes section for important reminders. Other than that, I hope you all have a great break and that the weather is great.
Take care and I will see y'all soon!
