This week and next we are focusing in science on proper usage of a microscope. Today we viewed a variety of slides and drew a few of our favorites. Next week we plan on preparing our own slides to view. In social studies we had a visitor, William Bradford, from the Plymouth Colony visit on Wednesday. I'm sure it would be an interesting discussion if you asked your child what was learned, as it appeared much knowledge was gained from this experience. We have been focusing heavily on identifying the main idea in informational text this week and will move onto predicting outcomes next week in reading. Our next book report will focus on a historical fiction book and will be due the 15th of December.
