Language Arts- We will be comparing and contrasting different passages. We will also practice editing different writing passages.
Science- We are learning all about Heat. (insulators, conductors, sources of heat)
Social Studies- We continue discussing Antebellum Times in SC. The students will take a test over this material on Friday. *Friday is my plan, but it may change.
My Favorite Part of the Week
My favorite part of the week was on Friday because we started a new unit in science. The new unit is about heat. Mrs. Rataiczak started off by giving us the thermometer and the three cups. The three cups were plastic, glass, and Styrofoam. While the water was boiling we did some of social studies. When the water was done boiling Mrs. Rataiczak poured the hot water into each cup then one person at the learning club put the thermometer in each cup. The temperatures were all different in each cup. We waited 10 minutes and then we put the thermometer back in the cup to take the temperatures. After 10 more minutes we put the thermometer back in the cups and saw how much heat each cup lost. We learned how different materials lose and keep heat.
