Welcome back from Easter Break! I hope everyone had an enjoyable vacation.
Math
We are starting our unit on measurement. We will begin by focusing on telling time on an analog clock. In google classroom their is a link to a virtual clock for students that need assistance with telling time. Also, before break, I sent the students home with a math packet that was a review for telling time to the nearest minute.
Social Studies
We are continuing to learn about the history of South Africa. Afterwards, we will learn about their government. When the South Africa unit is complete, we are going to take a cumulative take home test.
