Weekly Update

The Naturalization field trip is always a class favorite but this year was really special. The girls watched close to seventy new American citizens take their oath and among them was our very own Mrs. Dorion. It was such a privilege to be able to witness the event! The girls also learned about the US Marshal Service, toured holding cells, and visited Judge Lauck's chambers.


The girls are really getting into our novel study, Number the Stars. They are doing well on the comprehension checks. Pleas ask your daughter to log in to her Quia account so you can see the quizzes (both reading and Wordly Wise). For this weeks 3WT, they completed it as a collaborative Google slide document. We have completed it this way before but they tend to get more concerned with pictures and videos to include. This week, I instructed them to only focus on their writing and they did a much better job. Here is their work!


The girls enjoyed an edible math activity where they found decimals on different snack packages and then converted the decimals into fractions. We will finish this up next week and keep moving through our study of decimals.
