Tuesday, March 23

 Hi parents,

We had a good day today!

We started our science exploration into Boats and Buoyancy today. We did an experiment in which we learned that an orange with its peel will float, but an orange without a peel sinks. The student tested a variety of other materials to see if they would float. 

We had Music class, and worked on 2-digit addition and subtraction. The blog probably sounds a bit like a broken record lately in terms of math, but that's just because these concepts require so much practice! Kids can usually pick up things like 2-D shapes and measurement in a couple weeks, but adding and subtracting take time and dedication. I'm really impressed by how hard the students have been working so far, and I am confident they are going to walk away with an exceptional understanding of these important, foundational topics.

We did Daily 5, Gym, and Spelling Practice in the afternoon.

Have a nice night!

Zac
