We Are Working In a Winter Wonderland

We did a lot this week in Science! We tested our mystery objects from our homemade rocks. We also observed our crystals. We discovered that the shape of the crystal does not ever change!

In math we worked on positive and negative numbers and the order of operations. We learned an acronym that helps us to remember what operation to do first...it is PEMDAS!!!! (Please excuse my dear Aunt Sally :)

In Social Studies, we have started reading a beautiful novel called , The Birchbark House, that will give us a wonderful appreciation for the Native American culture. We also continue to study the states and capitals of the S.E. United States.

Progress reports will be sent home today! Have a wonderful wintery weekend!
