In Social Studies we are deep inside the constitution. WE are focusing on 1) The purpose
2) The structure
3) The content
of the 5000 words that structure and run our country.
We are looking inside the actual words of the constitution, to work on our document skills, as well as making connections to apply the ideas to how our country runs today.
At the left you can see our on version of a preamble to a class constitution, based on the style our founding fathers chose.
In ELA we have finished our second short story, and are working on an analysis piece of writing, connecting the themes seen in each, and contrasting the way each story brings it out.
Here's a link to a video of one of the stories we read

We did a fantastic job presenting our book reports to the class, as well as critiquing and asking questions of our class-mates presentations.
Vocabulary quiz is on Tuesday! Don't forget to study!
