We are now officially half way through the second trimester! Where does time go? Our progress reports will be going home shortly.

In Math we have started a new unit that begins with exponential notation.

In Social Studies we have been talking and learning about the Industrial Revolution and the mills of the 1800's. We looked at a lot of old mills that used to exist, right here in Bridgton! We will move on to map the states and capitals of the South Eastern U.S.

In Science we just completed a cool lab where we make crystals!

We are getting better and better at identifying grammatical errors when we practice with D.O.L.
each week. We have seen huge gains!

We have been enjoying stories in Reading that have marine-life themes. They are full of description and they create all kinds of cool images in our minds! Remember to read 30 minutes each night.
