Week 7 Update

Hello 4B Families!

I hope you all had a wonderful, restful Thanksgiving break.  I want to also thank you all for the celebratory breakfast we had on Tuesday.  The students really enjoyed themselves!

In Language Arts this week, we are working on the rough drafts of the persuasive essays.  I will be providing feedback to all students on their drafts and return them so they can be typed over the weekend.  We are continuing with Robin Hood and our next quiz will take place on Wednesday, December 7th. 

In History, we started our unit on ancient China.  Ask your scholar about the different ways Emperor Shi Huangdi would punish criminals.

In science, we started our work with circuits.  The students were able to make a light bulb light using two wires and a battery.  The electricity unit will dovetail off of what the students already know about magnets.  There will be lots of opportunities for hands-on learning!

Thank you for all you do and have a wonderful week!
