After Winter Break, our class will be furthering our skills with adding and subtracting fractions, but with unlike denominators. This can often get tricky, but we will work hard to learn how to find a common denominator before we solve. In science, we will begin learning about fossils. Floor hockey, if the weather permits, will be our focus for several weeks in P.E.. In social studies, we are moving closer to the Revolutionary War, although about a month away still. Our focus will be directed at understanding which nations were beginning to struggle over control of North America, leading us to the French and Indian War. Feel free to build some background knowledge with your child over any of these subjects you like.
