This month in Language Arts we continued working on our writing prompts for our book and we are almost ready to send our books in to get published. We had 5 prompts that were picked for us and we got to pick the 2 last prompts that we’re going to write about. We also had reading groups that we already finished. We both read The Angel Experiment and it was a really good book about a girl who is 2% bird.
Cali- In math we are continuing working on ALEKS still and have now added breaks into the schedule. During these breaks we have math chat where we can ask friends about topics. We also have 24 where we have to make 24 out of 4 numbers that we’re giving.
Maggie- In math we are learning about area and perimeter and all of the formulas of how to find area and perimeter of pentagon, hexagons, and octagons. We also learned how to find area and perimeter of pentagonal prisms, hexagonal prisms, and octagonal prisms.
In social studies we just finished learning about Ancient India. We learned about the two main religions of India which are Hinduism and Buddhism. Also, we learned about what the main cities what have looked like which include Mohenjo-Daro and Harappa. Another thing is we learned about how India is also known as the Indian sub-continent because the Himalayan Mountains separate India from Asia. Now, we are moving on to our next ancient civilization unit called “Ancient China”.
In science we learned about atoms and molecules. We learned about how molecules are made of atoms. And we learned about mixtures and compounds. We learned how mixtures are made of several substances and how compounds are made of only one substance. Then we had to put together projects with the knowledge we knew on the subject. We put together an animoto on animoto.com
