This week is off to a great start. The students have a new set of vocabulary words (listed below) and are working on their 4 kinds of Sentences Poster projects. We will continue reading PEAK, making connections to what we know and have learned about Mt Everest and landforms. In Science the students revised their Hands-On-Landforms blue prints today and are ready to begin sculpting tomorrow. They will be painting their projects on Thursday, October 13 (wardrobe alert.)
