Thank you to all of you who were able to attend our writers' celebration this morning. Students worked so hard on these pieces, and it was wonderful to share them with all of you!In math, we concluded our unit on area and perimeter. When we return from break, we will start a new unit on fractions.
In reading and social studies this week, students continued to draft their journals from the perspectives of children from the seventeenth century. We wrote final drafts of these journals on "aged" paper.
In science, we did experiments involving a material that's abundant outside right now--snow! We measured the amount of water in snow and learned that the unique shape of snowflakes increases their volume. We also did an experiment involving snow and ice. We discovered that salt makes snow melt faster because it lowers the freezing point of water.
