We have had a very busy week. We began our unit on colonial America. We created 3-D maps of Jamestown and Roanoke settlements and are learning all about life in the thirteen original colonies. We assessed Chapter 11 which was division with 2-digit divisors. We will be moving into our geometry unit next week. We are finishing our "How-To" writing as we learn about the features of informational writing.
Well, the students are begging- and I mean begging- me to go back to the other reading log. So, in response to their pitiful pleading, I have decided that next week we will go back to the original form. Hey, sometimes things work and sometimes they don't. I will have the students transfer their other reading to this form so it will count for this nine weeks.
Spelling will resume next week as well since we're back to a five day week. Have a great weekend.
