Students wrapped up their work with the First Continental Congress and began to look at the famous ride made by Paul Revere. Students were exposed to a poem written by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow and were encouraged to view this important events from a perspective other than a patriot.
In math class, students began to covert units of measurements. Using units of length, capacity and weight, students worked in small groups to make these conversions. The fifth grader did a nice job with this work.
Finally, during our ELA block, room 312 continued to look at different forms of poetry and also continued to put the finishing touches on their biography poems.
A busy day and a productive one.
