Here's the scoop

      Today is Friday, November 15, 2013 and the weather is getting colder. We have been working hard  in math. We learned new Divisibilty rules. Divisibility is when we do plus, division, and multiply. We have also learned to find the greatest common factor. In order to find the GCF you need to do times and we  have to figure out what times the number and list them.
       Number of the day is 33. We take a number and use plus, multiplication, and, division.

  Our next states and Capitals test is Wednesday, November 20, 2013. I am currently studying to take  the States test. I am sure I will do a good job. There is a song on You Tube that we have been using to help us with our states. I really like that song. 
     We have also been studying lots of vocabulary words. Each week we make flash cards, work on     sentences, graphic organizers and made videos with our iPads. My favorite word we've learned so far is Monochrome. The definition of Monochrome is having one color; a painting, design, photo or outfit that is only one color or shades of one color.

                                   I saw a fish in the pond but when I picked it up 
                                   I didn't want it but it was no refunds.
                                   I kept it home an put in in my pond
                                   I sold it to my mom
                                  My mom went back to the pond and got the log.
                                 She wrapped the log up to give to me.
                                My mom gave me the log and I put it in the pond.
                               She went back to the pond.
                                My mom wrapped the log.
                               My mom gave me the log.
