This morning we met in our "government simulation groups" once again. Each group made some important final decisions: each group now has a State Motto and a State Flag. Each state name is based on Greek and Latin roots. Ask your child about the meaning.
Here is what the teams came up with:
Potdemsimil- Power People Together
Omniequfortpot- Together, We Are One
Omnifortpot- Fighting For The Unity And Freedom Of Tomorrow
In Math, we went over last week's homework and delved deeper into division. We discussed the vocabulary and talked about how division relates to fractions.
Tonight's homework may ask your child to use counters. In class, we used both models and regular old division. Feel free to use the method that works for you tonight.
