Science:Â We are headfirst into our unit on Force and Motion. We have worked on defining, describing, and graphing motion. We have also worked on measuring speed by doing data collecting experiments with the use of tape measures and stopwatches.
ELA:Â This week our kids will begin their rough draft based on the research they have done in Social Studies. Â Each student will write an opinion piece from the point of view of either a pre-revolutionary Patriot or Loyalist.
Math:Â In math, we have started our unit on metric conversions and understanding volume by studying cubes and prisms.
Social Studies:Â This week we wrapped up our research using primary and secondary history sources describing the major events that lead up to the Revolutionary War. We will wrap up our study of history this school year discussing the Revolutionary War.
