Wit and Wisdom This week we will shift our focus from the sea to

space. We will begin by learning about the astronomer Galileo Galilei and his thirst for

studying the sky. We will discuss how authors use chronological order when recording

historical events.

Math We will review the algorithms used to solve

three-digit addition and subtraction problems. The measurement concepts of time, weight,

capacity, and length will be the basis of these equations. I have added more options to my website for math practice. I will be adding

Prodigy later this week.
