Week 13

  This week we had parkour class. We worked on different types of jumps.  We also went on a scooter ride down the river trail. There were tons of leaves on the trail which was fun. We would slide one foot along and get big piles of leaves scooped up.

We watched The Addams Family movie and then went to a play production of The Addams Family at Lone Peak High School. My brother's girlfriend was in the play so that was why we went. It was fun.

We also went and saw the new Black Panther movie, Wakanda Forever. It was really good. 

In Geography we learned about Taiwan and Singapore. In history we learned about the start of slavery into the colonies in Virginia. Tobacco was so profitable that people wanted to be able to grow more and more of it, but it was a crop that required a lot of hand labor to tend and harvest. It's pretty sad that people were enslaved so people could get rich off of tobacco. 

Mali: In math I worked on 3 and 4 digit subtraction. I understand them now but they take so long to do each problem. I read Henry and Mudge and The Long Weekend. 

Max: I enjoyed reading in the Guiness Book of World Records 2023 that my mom bought this week. I am working on different types of measurements and comparing measurements in math. I wrote a short paragraph about my two favorite types of dinosaurs.
