Social Studies with Ms. TextorStudents have wrapped up their time

learning about the economy and economics

this week by researching the economic

status of countries we have discussed overthe year. After researching, we took our

findings and compared it to the United

States economy to discuss how different

countries use their economics to helpdevelop their own country. With one last

full week of school left (yikes!), the class will

be working on two fun projects. The first

will be a letter students will write to take a

look back on the year and reflect over what

they have learned. This letter will let the

kids talk about what they liked the most and

what they wish they could learn more

about. The last piece that students will be

doing is our 'ROUND THE WORLD

POTLUCK!'. We have traveled far over theyear from Greece, Rome, Medieval Europe

and Latin America. It's time to put those

wonderful countries to use with food! The

classes will be choosing what country they

would like to bring a dish in and on

Thursday we will have a social studies

potluck where the students will bring in

their food with a card describing what the

food is and what country it is coming from. I

can't wait for the classes to sample all of the

delicious food that will be brought to school!

Processes with a lab on soil conservation.
