Math- It is by far the most gruesome subject of the day. The torture of having to do hard problems is unbearable. We fear that we might die of an overdose of math. Help us, please spare your children. We will be forever grateful. Okay, so maybe math isn’t that gruesome. However, in our class we must sit nearly the full hour. An entire hour is longer than you think, and the fact that you must sit and be silent makes it boring. Although we have a break in towards the end of the class, it is a short one. Otherwise we find it to be fine, since on Aleks (the website we use) you get to chose what you work on.
Spelling- One of the more pleasant subjects of the day is towards the end of the afternoon. In this subject we are divided into two groups. In enrichment, we get to work independently in class. We also have the option to use the computers which helps with our packet. Overall spelling is pretty good.
L.A.: In Language Arts, we have been using response logs to respond to lessons taught by Mrs. Fulfer herself about our books. In the writing area, we have been working on 8 writing prompts that are going to be turned into a book. LA is one of the better classes of the day.
Science: Recently we have started a new unit about matter of energy. Our class took the Ecology test on Tuesday. The Ecology unit was about how animals interact with each other and their environment. We are glad to move on from the Ecology unit because we want to learn something new to expand our brains.
Social Studies: A week or two ago we finished the Ancient Mesopotamia unit. At the end of the unit we split into groups and made skits. Each skit was different. While some were more informative, there were others that were hilarious. Now that we are done, we are moving onto Ancient India.
