Language Arts~
After PE, we reviewed grammar skills. Then we sorted spelling words by how the short vowel sound is made. We reviewed this week's vocabulary words and skills. We read the story together and filled in a graphic organizer to help us see how the character affects the plot of the story. We put the finishing touches on our skits so that we can present them tomorrow. We learned that dyna/dynamo is a greek root that means power or force.
HW: Keep working on weekly homework!

Science (W)~
We began chapter 2. Our focus question: What Makes up our Solar System? We made a model of the earth and moon today. The earth is 4 times the size of the moon. The distance between the two objects is 30 times the size of the earth's diameter. The moon is much smaller and farther away than we think. We also read about stars and galaxies.
