Evaporation
Evaporation is when the water floats up into the sun.You cant see it when it floats up into the sun.After the sun evaporates all of the water the clouds start to condense. Then it starts to rain witch is called precipatation. After that it starts to do something called runoff.And then something else happens and its called collection.Collection is when water on the ground collects.

Fact family
In class we have been learning about fact families. A fact family can be with multiplication and adding, division and subtraction. There are 4 equations in a fact family. I'm about to give you an example of a fact family. Example: 9x3=27 3x9=27 27/9=3 and 27/3=9. And that is a fact family!
How To Do Grids and expressions
I am going to teach everybody how to do grids and expressions. First step is to make or draw a grid. How do you do that? Well it depends. Maybe it could be a 6x8 grid or maybe a 5x9 it doesn't really madder. Color in two parts of the grid. Next is the expression. First you have to break apart the to parts into multipication problem like 4x5= (4x3)+(4x2) and this is how you check this 4(5)=20. This is how you do grids and expressions.
Distributive Property
Distributive Property is when you break a whole object or group apart and hand it out. We used distributive property in arrays or grids. We have also been doing division. Division is repeated subtraction like Multiplication is repeated addition.
I Hope This Helped!
Veterans Day!
Veterans day is fun.Veterans day is when you celebrate the navy,military,or the air force.They fought our freedom for us.They helped us with many things.On veterans day we say the pledge.Some pepole have died in the war.
On Friday we had an early celebration of Veteran's Day. I had a very big speech in both activities. The exact words were In 1938 armistice day was made a legal federal holiday , and in 1954 the word ''armistice'' was replaced with ''veteran's'' as a way to formally include all veteran's of all American wars in the day of remembrance. Veteran's day is a day not only to remember those who died in service to our country , but also to recognize those who continue to serve in our military today to fulfill this patriotic duty to maintain the freedoms of our country. I was very happy , but scared at the same time. I was exited that I memorized it by heart. There were other very important parts in the celebration , like when the Veteran's talked about why they entered the military. There are very many reasons why I think this celebration was important.

There are a lot of dangerous severe weather. Some people even have bad injury's from severe weather. I feel sorry for the people that got injured really badly. I hope I never get injured from severe weather. I always want to be safe from severe weather. I am not kidding ethier. Even If my family doesn't have a basement my mom will still get me and my brother to a save place.
Website
Zondle is a website we went to in tech lab. You get to learn what blogs are, photo tag, were is the best place to put your privet stuff on the internet, and stuff like that. I love that website. I am in 4 place with 923 zollars. I am going to have plenty more zollars than I have right now. If you get it right answer you may be able to play a game. I've got it wrong before, of course. Some games are very long, like seriously. A few times it took me a long time, but now I am fast at it.
What we did we do this week
We have been working on explorers and clouds.There are 3 clouds. Cummulus,cirrus,and stratus. In social studies we learned about the explorers.I did John Cabot for my presentation.It was fun doing it.We had great presentations while we were in Ms.Corns class.
Math
In math you all know we are learning about the properties so far I know 3 properties commutative, zero property and identity property. These properties can help you in math for multiplication. I hope you all get those properties. I know I do.

Math/Reading Tests
Today we did our Math test. The hardest question (because I forgot to study this weekend) was #3. Number 3 on the first side that is. This question was hard because it was about commutative property.
Today we also have a reading test on "Dear Mrs. Larue". I have already taken the reading counts test! I passed! You guys do well on your reading test!

Social Studies Explorer's Routes Map
Today we have started on our Explorer's route map. It's where we use a specific color per explorer or thing. Lanyzha and I did the Columbian Exchange. The columbian exchange is the exchange of goods between the east and west hemispheres. We are getting farther and farther into the unit. By the way I forgot to add the columbian exchange started because of christopher columbus' voyage.

Social Studies Presentation
I think everybody did a great job. Some were misspelled.Some of them had good information. Some had to much information and some didn't even have all of the information it needed. I've got to say I was kind of scared when I went to the front of the classroom. I should have changed the color of the font because I couldn't see the words until Mrs.corn turned the lights off. I put way to many information in my presentation. At first I had to many sentences and to many words. Then my mom helped me and told me were to put a bullet list. That helped me a lot. When I was presenting my presentation I kept having to look at the smart board (presentation). I was kind of embarrassed when I was presenting. I was kind of nervous and happy when we started. I helped a lot of people do animations. After all it was very fun. And this is how I think about my presentation and everybody else's presentations.

Hi ms.Rojas and ms.Corn I want to tell you what we did for our social studies explorer project.What the class did is we had to make star charts for all the explorers and then we had to put in the information in the charts and then you have to pick your explorer that you want to present and you present it on.
Our presentation
I really like doing the presentations it was a lot scary. When I got called I was frozen. But then when I went up there I felt really confident in my self. After I was finish everybody caped for me.
It was hard looking for info for my person (De Soto). But I still Accomplish my work and did a great presentation and I hope everybody else did to.
Social Studies Presentations
I think the classmates did good with their presentations.Our presentations were about the explorers.I graded myself of how good i did.I learned about the explorers and their journeys.I hope we learn about something else in social studies.The explorers were very very brave while they were exploring.The classmates did very good with there explorers.

10/30/13: Our Presentation Date
Today we did our presentations. I was so nervous. I think I did my personal best. I could have been more exciting, but overall I think I did good. My explorer that I did was Christopher Columbus! I even talked about the three ships he sailed in. Everyone did a explorer. The only explorer we didn't do was Leif Ericson. There was Christopher Columbus, John Cabot, De Soto, Hudson, La Salle, Magellan, but no Leif Ericson.I'll just give a few facts about him, He was born in and sailed for Iceland. He went to Canada because he thought it was Asia, For gold- things to trade, and for Glory- for his vikings. He passed down historing sagas and his vikings were known as a warrior culture.

i feel smart with you!
hey Mrs.Rojas and Mrs.Corn i want to give a shout out to you guys because i have been so happy that i have you because i feel very smart and i learn something new each day. i feel that i am safe with you and that i am getting smarter by the second!
Social Studies
In social studies I made a slide about Hernando De Soto. I am so glad I finally got to do a slide in school. Isn't that cool. I usually do it at home but now I do it at school to.I put animations in my slide to. Hernando De Soto is a great and smart explorer.He was looking for gold, glory, and god. I hope I do another slide on somebody else. I changed the background, and font. I saw my favorite font on the chrome book. There were four parts. I had awesome pictures. I also did a explore chart.
Math
In math I have been learning about place value,mental math,and other things.And I have had been confused with the things I learn.But the things I have been learning about place value,place value is the value of the number in that place.Math is my favorite subject and I am good at it but my grades are not showing it but I am going to try and show you so you can know.Thank you for trying to push me hard so I can show that I am really smart.So thank you for everything.
In science we are in a new unit it is called tracking weather.Today in Ms.Rojas room we had to write 3 Qualitative 3 Quantative and for both meaning of the world.I enjoy every thing we did to did today in class
The Water Cycle
The water cycle has 3 very important parts which is evaporation, condensation, and precipitation. There are many other parts like run off, transpiration, freezing, and melting, but those are the 3 most important. Water Cycle is important to me, because it tells how the water we use today has been used thousands and thousands of years ago, and will be used thousands and thousands of years later. By the way the water does not pick up any dirt or dust, it is left on the ground. All the water that is reused is clean and that is about the water cycle.
Clouds and Explorers
In the 2nd block (Mrs.Rojas) we learned about clouds in science. We learned that there are 3 types of clouds. Cumulus, Cirrus, and Stratus. We went outside today and examined the types of clouds that are outside today. Today there are cumulus clouds. We know this because the clouds outside are puffy white clouds in the shape of a dome with a flat bottom. Stratus clouds are clouds that are more darker they tend to blanket and spread across the sky. Cirrus clouds are thin and wispy like feathers.
In the 1st block (Mrs.Corn) we learned about explorers. We read a book called encounter. The explorers we learned about were Leif Erikson, Christopher Columbus, De Soto, Magellan, La Salle, Henry Hudson, and John Cabot. We are starting to make presentations on a explorer that we chose. I chose Christopher Columbus and now I have to practice what Im going to say. Argh! So much to say about him.
P.S. This is for Mrs.Corn and Mrs. Rojas.
Sincerely,
Ryann Peterson
