Reading/Language Arts

The class is reading The Boxcar Children by Gertrude Chandler Warner. It was originally published in 1924. As we read each chapter the class is completing reading, language, and writing activities. When we finish the whole book, the class will watch the movie. 

The results of the Unit 5 Benchmark test have been included in the take home folder.

The class has been learning about different climates around the world. Students have studied the polar, temperate, and tropical climate zones.
