Testing, Charlotte's Web, and Money!

Another week down and the kiddos are working hard! In reading we took a break from our textbook due to our Smarter Balanced Testing and read from Charlotte's Web which was a welcome change of pace! In math we have been working with "real world" situations. Our math kiddos have perfected sales tax, checkbooks, sale prices, and on Monday they will be opening their own stores! Science this week brought us to the end of our rock unit, which included a rock and mineral lab where the kids discovered general physical properties of rocks and minerals and attempted to identify them! Look for pictures of the math kids and their stores next week and enjoy the three-day weekend :)
