Period 1 and 2
We took Vocab test #5. We took our Unit 2 Social STudies test today as well. (Chapters 3,4 and 5). We worked hard and everybody finished! Results will be back next week. We reviewed JA, focusing on family budgets.

Period 3 -We took our Vocab Test #5, then reviewed our independent reading program, worked on filling out reading logs and had some time to read silently.

Period 5 and 6
We took a vocab test (#5A) and completed a lesson in our daybooks. We read Chapter 12 in Light in the Forest and answered some questions as a group. We completed another lesson in our JA books;we were surprised to find out that food was not included in the budget scenario we looked at....
Unit 3 in our Social Studies books was introduced; we read some facts about the Native Americans and the British Colonists and compared what we are learning in Social Studies to what we are reading in The Light in the Forest.
