This morning we drew and labeled the Hudson, Delaware, and Potomac rivers. These are not large rivers, in the context of physical landforms, but they are extremely important in lieu of America's beginnings. WE WILL HAVE A TEST ON RIVER SYSTEMS OF THE USA NEXT FRIDAY.
After our Language Arts test, students tested each other in spelling and conferenced with each other on business letters. TYPED ROUGH DRAFTS OF THE BUSINESS LETTER ARE DUE NEXT WEDNESDAY.
We are still reading biographies. PLEASE KEEP READING YOUR BIOGRAPHY FOR YOUR BOOK REPORT. You should be halfway through it already.
MATH HOMEWORK IS EXERCISE 6. We mapped out the Common Area and figured out the area of the uncovered portion.
After lunch we learned about the Brothers Grimm in Cultural Roundtable. We worked on "Beginning with the End in Mind" in 7-Habits. Next, we practiced the rivers in a hands-on activity, and acted out movement simulations in Writer's Workshop. Students also chose between finishing off "Where the Red Fern Grows" and working on Type III projects.
Have a great weekend!
