December By: Carlos & Jack

Math: In Math Carlos is learning about algebraic equations and how to identify variables in certain expressions and equations. Jack is learning quadratic equations and has 11 topics left in Aleks math. Jack and Carlos think math is useful but it isn’t exactly fun or easy.

Language Arts: In L.A. we had book groups and we got to choose them. Our book was completely true. It was about the government and how they had too much control. They literally read people’s mail. An old woman named Ms. Moore knows a secret and tells Rachel and Vivian. We aren’t telling you, you have to read the book. We are also writing a book but we are not telling you much because it’s classified.

Science: In science we have been learning about matter and energy. Jack and Carlos did a project. We both got A’s. We are smart kids. We just literally took a pre-quiz on chapter 2. Matter and Energy are not the only things we learned about in science. We also learned about atoms and molecules. Everything is made up of atoms except for light and sound. The last thing we learned about was mixtures and compounds.

S.S: In social studies we learned about Indian culture and religion. Two main religions in India are Buddhism and Hinduism. We also learned about monks. Monks are people who devote their life to their religion. It takes a lot of sacrifice.

Extra Curricular: Jack and Carlos are still on the basketball team and getting ready to take on the team that we lost to. We should not have lost to them and now we are going absolutely own them.
