Week of January 28th

I'm blogging on the blog.  Today is First Friday and there is school store.  Here is more information.

Language Arts: We are still working on Language Arts.  We're reading a chapter then we make a "trading card" for it.  The girls are on the last chapter.  The boys are working hard too.  We are all almost done.  

Writing: We started learning how to write in cursive.  We are going to have to write our spelling words in cursive this week.  

Math: We had a math test this week and it was fun.  We did XtraMath.com too.  Math is fun!

Social Studies: In social studies we have been doing our stuff that we do in social studies.  We are people from the Civil War like General Mitchell or Mary Chestnut.  So basically we are studying social things!

Science: For science we started a new experiment.  We are seeing the effects of mold on fast food.  Wendy's and Subway are growing mold the fastest.  McDonald's and Dairy Queen don't have any mold and it has been 11 days!  It is just plain gross.  

Lunch: So right now we are having pizza from Godfather's every Friday.  We also had a school store.  School store is a store that runs during lunch every other Friday.  Everything is over 25 cents and under a dollar.  It sells things like pencils, erasers, bracelets, lollipops and candy. Our lunch is pretty normal.  

Recess: In recess we are just doing the usual stuff.  Nothing much is going on.  

Gathering: In the First Friday Gathering we were talking about the auction.  It is called Cirque du Seabury.  We also watched a videos about Bradley Oberhofer and how he donated some albums and other stuff for the auction.  It sounds very fun!

French: In French we are learning about months and days of the week, you know, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday.  You get it, only we do it like lundi, mardi.  It rocks, I mean learning with Madame Olliphant is so awesome.  I love it.  Woo!
