Happy Thursday!

Here is what we did today:

Math: Today we discussed subtracting fractions from the whole, and making fractions equal to one. We did problem set 60 and we will have a test on Friday.

Science: Today we finished the video on Albert Einstein (not Thomas Edison) .

Reading: In Mrs. D's class we discussed vocabulary for the next section of Number the Stars and had a discussion about what we have read so far. We also worked on fluency in our reading by working on the poem Smart by Shel Silverstien.

In Mr. H's class we read from Snow Treasure chapters 12-13 and 14.

Social Studies: We had a 13 question quiz over the explorers.
We will have a states and capitals test tomorrow.

English/ Writing: We had a prompt: What would happen if you grew taller than trees.

Spelling: We handed in our workbook pages today and we will have our final test tomorrow.

*We are planning on having a read in tomorrow to celebrate Children's book week. The students will be bringing home more information today!
