In Kim's math class, we worked on fractions. We did some model math with fractions. We finished our fraction flags. In Betsy's math class, we worked on multiplying and dividing fractions. In class, we read. (Grace: I read The Sea of Monsters. It is a really good book.) After we read, we made four symbols of our books and then wrote a two word plot. We had lunch with Katlyn. We made cards for Sarah and Audrey. We made a Triangle-ope as a listening activity. The first years have a recorder party. The second years are going to drama.

In Kim's math we worked more on fractions. We made fraction flags. In Betsy's math class, we added and subtracted fractions. Kim read to us. We had music and worked on our belts. We had lunch in Beth's class. We had class. We did a cryptogram about what a primary source and secondary source are. Now, we are going to art.

Today in Betsy's math class, we worked on factors and multiples, like what was the least common multiple (LCM) and the greatest factor (GFC). We played HOG. In Kim's math class, we talked about equivalent fractions. We did a fraction sheet where we had cards and you had to show the fraction, write the fraction, and write the decimal. We played fraction dominoes. We played a game matching equivalent fractions. In class, some people finished our poems, we looked up vocabulary words, and we wrote in our journals. In art, we worked on our special projects. We also read. Now, we have Spanish.

Today in Betsy's math class we worked on some of our stuff and got our math folders organized and worked on the things that needed to be corrected. In Kim's math we worked on fractions. We talked about equivalent fractions and reviewed fractions. During class we read, wrote a final draft of our poems, worked on a synonyms packet and spelling vocabulary. We played a game like Around the World but with our books with the genre, main characters, setting, and favorite parts. In music, we read the book, "Following the Drinking Gourd."

In Betsy's math class we worked on Dynamath and we worked on long multiplication (and some worked on really long division). In Kim's math we worked on coordinates and finding our place on a graph. We also worked on our individual packets. Mine was a paper with Roman numbers and facts about ocean animals. In Music, we worked on ukuleles and recorders. We had class. In class, we worked on spelling and looked up words we didn't know. We worked on our Social Studies Log. We wrote our final draft of our "Through the Looking Glass" poems. Now we are going to Art.
