Welcome back!

Today we started talking about onomatopoeias.  We did some solid prewriting for our new onomatopoeia poems, and tomorrow we will start drafting them.

In math we took a pretest on bar modeling.  The important thing to remember about bar modeling is that it is a way to visualize a story problem and to keep track of your thinking.  I love bar models!

We started learning about Native Americans today.  We are going to be running our own village of Early Northwest Coastal People.  Tomorrow we will build the environment that our village is in.
