Curriculum Tidbits:
Math:
In math, we have begun our unit over measurement. The learners will be skilled at converting measurements within the same system and solving problems that deal with measurement using models to determine a formula for perimeter and area. They will also know relative sizes of measurement within the customary and metric systems.
Science:
In science, we will be investigating why we have seasons and tides. We will also be continuing to track the phases of the moon with the moon packet that was sent home last week.
