Johnston Academy of Learning: Week 8 19-20

Scotty-

Math: My dad taught me about the power of tens. I got some of it, but I didn't get the division part as much, because I haven't learned about division yet. I also practiced some more multiplication. I am getting better at that!

Language Arts: I took off and I added e's and ing's. I also practiced nouns and verbs.

Science: We learned about animals who have wing flap things in their armpits. Then we tried to think of ways we could make ourselves fly more... Well not fly, but glide really far. We tried plastic bags on our arms. It didn't work good, or bad. There are SNAKES that can glide! Also we learned about how water can be like an excavator. Then we made our own rivers.

TECH: I built the next part of my machine and it was a hammer and I could hammer things in with it. I also built train tracks all over the living room.

Karate: I have my test coming up for my blue belt, so I was practicing the things I have to know for that. I need to practice my forms more.

Beth-

Math: I did math with adding and subtracting. That is easier than skip counting.

Language Arts: I practiced my handwriting some more. Mom was teaching me to keep them all the same size. I also read another story. I read in a book too. I read about a mom and baby fish.

Science: We learned about animals that can fly from the trees. There are squirrels and snakes, and lizards. I wanted to fly too. But we didn't go very far. But some people do! We saw on arch, so we learned about how they are made. Water makes them, we made a river.
