Monday

We read a short article today about commercials. We will be reading another article for our test, but this one was interesting. It talked about the different ways that commercials try and get a child's attention. We learned about the Federal Communications Commission. Then we reviewed our spelling and vocabulary words.

Students learned about the different types of triangles and quadrilaterals today. Then we worked a little on measuring angles with a protractor. Tomorrow we will do a little bit more with that. There is a great site to practice the vocabulary of geometry at aplusmath.com There are flashcards and a few games that help with geometry. They also have other flash cards and games that will help with other areas of math.

In Social Studies we learned about some cemeteries in Idaho. We will be making headstones tomorrow. The students are going to decide what information they would want to have on their headstone 65 years from now.
