I hope everyone has a nice Thanksgiving Break!

Students are currently working on their European Explorer/Spanish Conquistador Project.  They were assigned a specific explorer and are to look up information on their explorer and answer questions on him.  After they have all of the questions answered they need to collect their ideas and organize it into paragraphs and then write a final copy.  This can be typed or handwritten. 

This is DUE FRIDAY DECEMBER 19th!!!!!  We are not working on this in class.  This is an assignment for students to complete at HOME!

We just started our next Math Unit-Size, Shape, and Symmetry.  Students will be using different measurement tools to find the lengths, perimeters, and areas of objects and rooms.

I sent home a packet on different strategies for math and division…Look for them in students folders!
