Week in Review

Good Monday Afternoon to all our blog readers!

We have been very busy in Room 31 these days. In Social Studies we have been studying all things MAINE!  We wrote mini-reports on a few famous people from Maine which will be on display for Artists and Authors Night (March 27 from 6-8pm). We also spent time learning about the House of Representatives, the Senate and the Governor. We will be studying more about our state legislature this week and next before our trip to Augusta on March 28th!

In Math we finished up Unit 7.  Unit 7 was long and introduced many new things.  We will take the Unit 7 Test on Tuesday, March 19th. A review will go home today.

This week we will being a new unit on Digital Literacy and Citizenship. Students will be studying three units on things like digital responsibility, personal vs. private information, how to search on the internet safely and a lot more. I am excited to be teaching these units and hope to collaborate with third and fifth grade teachers over the summer about our new curriculum.
