It was a quiet day today, at least for the children. (Teachers are in overdrive thinking about class assignments for next year, but fortunately this anxiety doesn’t seem to trickle down.) We began by working on cursive, and then did a little quick write about what we would do if our parents suddenly moved us to the country. We read and discussed the Ox-Cart man, and students started on a thinking map about the life of this unnamed New Hampshire farmer. After recess, we corrected our math homework — volume and area are still pretty hazy in the kids’ minds — and we discussed how to divide money. We had an early start on the homework because there’s a little more than usual today.
Homework: (1) Study spelling. (2) Complete the Thinking Map about the Ox-Cart man and what he did at each season of the year. (3) Do the multiplication review worksheet. (4) Do “Divide Amounts of Money,” Math, page 349, numbers 1-9 only. (5) Do “Solve a Simpler Problem,” page 351, all problems.
