With a high rate of reading work completion, we had wonderful discussions of chapters 6 and 7 of Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry. Tomorrow we will discuss chapter 8. Please make sure your child has it completed. Students worked well during our Egypt project time. I'm very impressed with their projects. Some have worked outside of school, and the effort shows. Fifth Grade Math: Students worked on visual representations of multiplying fractions to find common denominators. I provided written directions, but if your child is having difficulty that is ok. We will work on it more tomorrow.
