Over the past two weeks in Social Studies we have been comparing the present and past. So far we have compared how jobs have changed over time, as well as looking a bit at the history of our own community of Ann Arbor. We will be delving further into this topic over the coming weeks.
In Math we have been practicing measurement, both in inches and centimeters. Students have been working on estimating how long they think an object or distance is, and then measuring and recording their results. Volume 1 Math journals will be coming home sometime next week. Any pages that are not completed can be worked on at home and the books do not need to be returned to school.
Author's Chair continues to be a highlight of the week. This is a time when students volunteer to read a story they have written to the class. It is a great way for the writer get feedback, for the audience to gain new ideas for writing, and to get to know one another even better.
