Time was spent exploring the early English settlement of Plymouth during social studies this morning. The kids worked with a graphic organizer to gather some important information about the colony, which we visited on a field trip earlier this school year.
In math class, the members of A303 began adding fractions. Using blank clock faces, the kids worked on a few workbook pages. A productive lesson.
The first week of December will see the fifth graders conclude their group monologue and poster concerning Esperanza Rising. A lot of time and effort have went into this work over the last two weeks and we are all eager to see the finished results.
We are also going to move into the second portion of our fraction unit. We will start adding and subtracting fractions these next two weeks. Some very important lessons are upcoming.
