September 4-7 Week 3 Already!

Wow! We're in the third week of school already, where has the time gone? Routines are starting to become second nature, and things are starting to work like clockwork, which is a good thing!

Science 
We will be detectives this week trying to figure out maps that have mystery footprints left behind and clues to figure out. We'll be making inferences to make our hypotheses and try to crack open the cases. We will also be fine tuning our predicting skills by getting to do some hands on activities to help us. Hopefully we'll be closing our week learning how to control variables in experiments. We're definitely busy scientists at work!

Social Studies
We are trying to finish up learning our latitude and longitude skills this week. Our goal is to become latitude and longitude experts by the end of this week. If your child forgot their cardboard for their map project, there is still time to bring it in. My goal is to begin making our maps of our continent North America out of salt dough at the end of this week.
