Sneak a Peek at Next Week (February 26-March 2)

Happy Monday!!   My students used Google Slides to make presentations about famous African Americans.  First, they had to record their research and then they put this information on a Google Slide.  They presented their projects today, and I was so impressed with their projects.   Also, MAP testing will be coming up soon, probably around the third week of March.  I will give you the dates as soon as I know them.  Please encourage your child to work on Compass Learning at home as this is a great site for MAP practice!!   I hope everyone has a great weekend and don't forget to read, read, read!

​​​​​​Sneak a Peek at Next Week (February 5-9)

​​​Happy Friday!!  What an amazing experience my students had with our Economics unit!!  They learned about supply and demand, needs and wants. producers and consumers, income, interest, savings, good and services, and advertisements.  We thoroughly enjoyed our field trip to Publix and the "behind the scenes" tour.  They filled out job applications and were hired to work in a factory to make a certain product.  They worked so hard to make their goods, along with their advertisements, for their products.  I hope everyone has a great weekend and don't forget to read, read, read!
