Wednesday's Wisdom by Amelia

We read a story called Thanksgiving at the Tappletons'. We wrote in our journals about what we are thankful for! We learned different resources that give us information. These included a globe, a card catalog, a newspaper, an atlas, an almanac and a telephone directory! We had art this afternoon and we made a "different is good" picture. We drew how people can be different from each other. In math this afternoon we practiced solving frames and arrows problems that had 2 different rules! In social studies we read more fun facts about the presidents, and we listened to "America the Beautiful" and thought about what the words meant. New words we learned today are tax, government, and law.

Have a good afternoon!
Amelia :)

  2. Ok, here goes:
    1) name a proper noun
    2) give an antonym for "mean"- there are many!
    3) think of a simile comparing the leaves outside to something else!
