We let our blog get way out of date! Yikes!
Mrs. Griffin went to kindergarten for a month as part of her student teaching program and the fifth-graders got busy. We're not any less busy now, but we are determined to tell the world what fantastic stuff we are doing.
In science, we have studied variables with pendulums and paper cup lifeboats. We also taught our kindergarten buddies about pendulums and really enjoyed sharing science with our buddies.
In math, we've focused on measuring -- time, perimeter, circles, you name it! We taught our kindergarten buddies about diameter, radius and chords and made Christmas ornaments. We'll have to post a picture of it soon. It will be a quick review of fractions and decimals before we leave for Christmas break.
In reading we are going to read an abridged version of A Christmas Carol and compare and contrast the book with several movie versions.
Happy Holidays! We'll post again soon.
