December is a busy month! In math we are using our newly learned multiplication and division skills to solve multi-step word problems.  In Social Studies, we are beginning our next geography unit. We are excited to explore the similarities and differences in countries around the world. We’ve begun our study of weather and climate as it relates to informational reading and writing. We are identifying non-fiction text features and their importance for a reader. While doing so, we are researching different weather phenomena and synthesizing the information into a well developed writing piece. What a productive and fun month it is for us!
