Today we worked on converting customary measurements of length, and tomorrow we will begin learning about customary measurements of weight.

Today we reviewed some of the things that we learned about rocks and minerals earlier in the year, and we watched the Planet Earth video about caves.

If you would like to hear more about our day today, you can ask your kiddo about:

What animals live in caves?
How do people get in and out of caves?
What rock are most caves in?
How long would it take to briskly was 5 miles? (at about 20 minutes per mile)
How many feet are in 3 miles?
How many yards are in 3 miles?
What is the perimeter of a 6 ft square yard? What is that perimeter in inches?
What is the area of a 6ft square yard?
What makes the difference between a summary story that gets a 3 for a grade and one that gets a 4 for a grade?
