Math

Today we went over our pre-assessments and looked at some key terminology and some examples. This can be a challenging unit, so extra support at home would be great. They will also need a protractor for some of the homework.   

Language

Today we resumed our spelling lesson. We worked on lesson 7. We also continued work on our mystery stories.   

U.O.I. (Unit of Inquiry)

Today we started our 2^nd unit of inquiry…The Early Settlers! We will be taking a look back at the life the Early Settlers lived. We will also be taking a trip to Pioneer Village towards the end of the unit, so stay tuned! Today we focused on what a community is and they students created community maps.

I hope everyone has a wonderful evening!!
