Tuesday's Notes

Language Arts~
We were busy today.  We began our Myth unit.  Today our focus was why do people tell myths.  We discovered that often, people tell myths to explain nature.  We watched a short movie and read a non-fiction passage and did a worksheet.  We also took our unit 1 test over the reading book.

HW:  Some students need to finish the worksheet. 

Math~
We are spending today and tomorrow reviewing basic multiplication facts.  We looked at some patterns dealing with multiplication.  We also reviewed some rules: Zero, ones, tens, and turn around facts.  We also learned some vocabulary. We will continue our review tomorrow.

HW: None

Science~
We are beginning our chapter 3. Our focus will be on all the different interactions in a community of living things. We watched to Bill Nye videos to introduce these concepts.
