Language Arts~
We had PE this morning. We came back to class and read chapter 11 in Sign of the Beaver. We then worked on our work. We added 6 words to our story vocabulary. We added 3 events to our sequence charts. We added to our literary elements charts and wrote 1/2 page journal entry about chapter 11. What didn't get done in class is homework.
We also participated in the Great American Shake-Out today. We practiced an earthquake drill. The things to remember are to drop - get down, cover - get under a table or desk, and hold-on - hold onto a table leg or something. We then went outside for an evacuation drill.
Math~
Today we came up with a formula for finding the volume of a rectangular prism. v= l x w x h. We also reviewed geometric terms and worked on math boxes and study link 11.4.
Science (Woods)~
We reviewed for next week's ISTEP today. We reviewed the water cycle and why we have seasons.
