Writing: We began our Ocean Animal Research Projects! Each student picked an ocean animal and began researching. We learned how to find the best information and put it in our own words. This week we focused on the appearance and the diet of our animals.
Math: In Math we finished our unit on money and took our chapter test. On Friday we started learning about surveys and graphs.
Bible: This week we learned three more parables of Jesus. We learned that God is a loving father who forgives us when we mess up and disobey Him. We also learned how God wants us to pray. He doesn't want us to pray in a way that brings honor to ourselves, but to Him. Lastly, we learned about how God wants us to use the talents and abilities that He has given us to tell other people about Him.
Social Studies: This week we learned about communities. We talked about Urban, Suburban, and Rural communities and the characteristics of each one. Then we made Community Circles.
Important Information:
1. Spelling Words: spend, front, thumb, sending, triangle, climb, hung, strong, along, thank, trunk, bring, donkey, think, February, himself
