On this last week of march, the fifth graders continued to work with decimals during math class. The students worked with number lines and once again looked at the relationships between decimals and fractions. This work will be ongoing throughout the course of this week.
Later in the day, the students played history detective while looking at the events of the Boston Massacre. Using Paul Revere's famous engraving and various other sources, the members of room 312 looked to build a timeline of events that lead to this bloodshed.
