Math and Social Studies

This weeks math class sort of looked like this. Again we are learning how to estimate bigger numbers. We are also learning how to round bigger numbers. Its a little hard to round decimals but once you get it its not very hard.

In social studies the last couple of weeks we have been learning about landforms. We learned about deltas, mouth of the rivers and sources, also a ton of other landforms. We took our first test for chapter 1. I think I did great on it.

This past week we have been learning about how to estimate in math. We are took our first spelling test of the year last week. I got 100%. I thought the words were a little easy. But on the pretest I didn't do so well. In math we also took our chapter 1 test. The one problem that I struggled with was the place value one. After I got help after the test I understood it better. It made way more sense  after I got it explained to me. In science we finished investigation 1. We are pretty much done with the models of the school. We are going to start on investigation 2 sometime.

Caines Arcade

This is a very amazing video. Its very cool too. Caine is 9 years old he has his own arcade in L.A. You really need to watch this video. Caine's games are all made out of cardboard.

This week in class we made a book report. I did my book report about the book Abduction By: Peg Kehret. I read that book last year.  I really liked that book it was very good and I didn't want to stop reading it. This was the first book report I ever did on Microsoft Publisher. It was really fun making this book report and designing it. 

Bernard Softball Tournament

My last softball tournament of the season was in Bernard. In the first game we played Worthington. I hit a double and 2 other people did. We won that game. We played really well.

            The second game a couple of people hit doubles. We have 2 3^rd graders on who played on our team and one of them hit a double. We won that game too! We played Peosta.

            We played really well. We even won the whole tournament. That was the last tournament for the season! I had really fun! My whole team got a medal.
