December By: Jenni & Ally

Math- In math Ally is working on word problems on proportion. Before break Ally was working on word problems on percentage; Type 3. And in math Jenni was working on finding the area of a 3D figure. Now Jenni is working on pre algebra. We both think that math is fun and challenging.

Social Studies- In social studies Ally and Jenni were working on drawing a map for Mohenjo-Daro and reading about Buddhism. In social studies Jenni was working on Hinduism and Buddhism. Ally doesn’t really like social studies, but Jenni does. We hope that we don’t get much homework this month.

Writers workshop- We were and still are working on writing our books, Ally’s book is mostly fantasy and mystery. Jenni’s book is all about her favorite places, trips and people that we want to meet. We both kind of like writing and want to keep on writing about what we want to write about. Jenni’s favorite story that she wrote so far is about her favorite family trip. Ally’s favorite story that she wrote so far is her mystery story.

Readers workshop- Ally is reading a non-fiction book called Hoot. And Jenni was in a reading group with Elly, Janie and Charlene, they were reading Found. Jenni doesn’t really like reading but Ally does. Ally hopes to read more. Jenni likes to do reading groups.

Science- Ally was working on a skit about cooperation and learning about resources that we use every day. Jenni was doing a prezi with Elly on matter and energy and liquids and solids and atoms and molecules. Jenni hopes to do experiments in the next lesson.
