Before Vacation Blog

This Week’s Bloggers of the Week
Elise and Jack
(This is what we did before winter break)


In math, we learned about parentheses. It is similar to a comma in
writing. You do whatever is inside parentheses first.
We did problems like this:  
30-(10+9)=11.


In writing, we wrote compliments for people.
We finished a class opinion/persuasive writing piece
about why we should have a class Bingas/pizza movie party.


In reading, we are reading “Who Was?” books for our wax
museum project at the end of the year. These books are biographies.
We are reading about The Beatles as a class.


In science/social studies we did LEGO Wedo where we build
something out of Legos and program it to move or make noise.
Check out the video!
