We learned and did a lot today. In writing we wrote rhyming poetry using matching letters to mark rhyming lines such as AABB, ABAB, and even ABAC. That was really exciting because we have never done something like that before.
Music was what we had for specials. First, we did a dance. Then we watched a video on ragtime, jazz, and marches. On the video there was a song called "The Maple Leaf Rag" by Scott Joplin. The video also taught us about common melodies.
During math we learned about rotations, reflections, translations(slides), and congruent shapes. We also did a FCAT practice. We didn't have math games today.
Reading was really fun!!!! We are almost finished with our Civil War projects. Most of us are on our essays and some are done!!
