Last day of November!

Wow, this school year is passing quickly!
We began the day with art where we focused on tessellations. Then we went to the computer lab to practice IXL math. So far, Nick is in the lead. Go Nicholas!
During reading/current events, we read an article called, Learning Chinese. It was really interesting. Some of the vocabulary words for today, include; bilingual: adj able to speak two languages, immersion-adj: method of instruction where only the language being taught is used, assurance-n: promise or pledge, blockbuster-n: a hit movie.
In math, we are focusing on long division and review of place value.
In Geography, we had our quiz on 4 locations (Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, Iran & Iraq)
We concluded the day with the school spelling bee. Devon & Ani represented us well! Great job girls! :-)
**HOMEWORK: Don't forget to update your reading logs (multiple sources), each day after school by reading for 30+ minutes each night, study for geography final, your math study link and any unfinished class work/assignments. :-)
