Week 4

Hello!

I so enjoyed listening to our class sing at the Spring Concert last Thursday! They have grown so much in their musical ability this year!

Dates to remember

  • April 20th - AZ Merit, Reading and Math
  • April 25th - AZ Merit, Reading and Math (last one!)
Academics this week:


As we continue reading Carry On, Mr. Bowditch, we have had some thoughtful discussions on how Nathaniel Bowditch handled the suffering and hardships of his life (of which there are many). He is truly a marvel and tremendous example of hard work, resilience, and perseverance. This week we'll be reading about Bowditch's first voyage and learning how to tell time by the stars. 

In math this week, we will be defining and identifying quadrilaterals and different kinds of triangles. We will also identify and make lines of symmetry. 

We have been having so much fun learning about and exploring magnetism. This week, we will begin to see the relationship magnetism has with electricity. The students will need a 9-volt battery for Tuesday.

This week in history we will continue our study of the years leading up to the American Revolution. We will focus on the taxes imposed on the colonists, the Boston Massacre and the Boston Tea Party.

Have a great week!
