In Social Studies, we are finishing the study of the Revolutionary War. We are also studying the Middle Atlantic states and capitols. I hope everyone enjoyed their day off to celebrate our country's hard-working Veterans!
We've got some exciting things happening in Science! We are working on a project called "A Whole Lot of Quakin' Going On!" The students are constructing skyscrapers that can withstand an earthquake. They are using straws, skewers, tape, clay, etc for materials.
We are finishing our unit on geometry in Math. Students have learned how to find interior angles of polygons and how to use protractors to measure angles. They also learned about different kinds of triangles. We will be taking the unit 3 test on Monday.
In reading, we read a play called "It Takes Talent." The kids were really excited to read the script, which was very humorous! Each week, we have a new list of vocabulary words to learn. One of the words from this week is "prognostication." Talk with your child about this word!
