With a 4 day week turning into an 'ice day' 3 day week, we are adjusting to the curriculum.
In Language Arts we have been working on the DLR.  We utilized Spelling City for or spelling. 
(As a reminder, I have a link set up for Spelling City on this blog.)
In keeping with the theme of Black History Month, we watched "Rubie Bridges" and then wrote 2 paragraphs about what we learned from the movie.
In Math we are working on 3 digit by 3 digit multiplication and percentages.
For Social Studies we are still in Egypt and the subjects are pyramids and sarcophagus.
In Science the topic is minerals.
