Lower Elementary has been busy at work!
For math and language jobs this week, students reviewed concepts previous taught this quarter. Students thoroughly enjoyed researching volcanoes, working with jobs from the word study cabinet, and reviewing math facts.
The highlight of our week was our trip to Moundville. Students had many wonderful experiences! We visited the Jones Archaelogical museum and saw artifacts used in a traditional wedding ceremony, surveyed traditional Native American dancing from atop a mound, and experienced what life was like in the late 1700s and early 1800s in the Living History Camp. Our class was told by two separate re-enactors that we were the smartest school group that they had talked with that day! Students (and the teachers) even enjoyed a sample of fry bread!
This coming week, students will receive presentations on homonyms, additional work with suffixes, comparing numbers, word problems with money, and much more!
