• I learned how to deal with decimals.
• There is the tenths place, the hundredths place, the thousandths place, and the ten thousandths place.

• In writing I learned how to write similes.
• A simile can have as blank as in it or like in it.
• An example of one is he was as hard as a rock.
• In writing we learned about metaphors too.
• A metaphor does not have like or as blank as in it. It has is in it.

• In reading class, we are learning about point of view and author’s purpose.
• The authors purpose can be to entertain, persuade, inform.
• Point of view is how the author felt about parts of what he/she wrote.
• If you read something that says someone loved dogs, then the author probably wrote about that because they like dogs.

• In Social Studies, we have been learning about the Lenape.
• The Lenape is a Native American tribe.
• There are 2 other tribes called the Munsee and Unami.
• Those tribes would either live in longhouses or wigwams.

• In science we have been learning about circuits.
• There is a short circuit, a series circuit, a parallel circuit, an open circuit, and a closed circuit.
• An open circuit has gaps and breaks.
• A series circuit has two light bulbs in a single path. Either both light bulbs light up or none at all.

• In reading class, we just started reading The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe.
• There are four kids named Lucy, Edmund, Susan, and Peter.
• Lucy is the youngest. However, Edmund is the second youngest.
• Even the first chapter is interesting.

• In math, we learned about fractions.
• You can add or subtract fractions.
• When you add 2 fractions that have the same denominator you leave it the same and add only the top 2 numbers.

• In science, we have learned about magnets.
• A magnet that can turn on and off by current electricity is called an electromagnet.
• There are big magnets and small magnets.
• There are even magnets that you can’t pull off of their platform.
• My opinion is that magnets are very cool.

• In math class, we learned about percent.
• If the fraction was 7 over 10 then the percent would be 70%.
• If the fraction was 70 over 100 the numerator would stay the same so the percent would be 70%.
• If it is a different fraction then it is a different percent.

• In writing we recently finished our research reports.
• I did Marie Curie. She is very interesting.
• Marie studied Radioactivity and she helped with making medicine.
• She made x-rays too.
• Marie won 2 Nobel Prizes. [cool]

• In writing, we learned about and how to do poems.
• The second and fourth line of a poem should rhyme.
• Your poem can be however long you want but I prefer to have my poems 6 to 8 stanzas.

• In writing we learned about Haiku’s.
• Haiku’s never rhyme.• Haiku’s are 3 lines.• For the syllable
pattern it is 5, 7, 5.• For me Haiku’s are
fun to do. • I did 5 in 1 day.
