National Anthem Day!




Today, everywhere you looked, students at N.S.I.S. were proudly wearing red, white, and blue! We were celebrating National Anthem Day! To begin our day, Mrs. Graziano gathered the chorus in her room, and they sang the National Anthem during our opening exercises! Their voices were beautiful!

In Language Arts, we took our first quizzes, worked on our storyboards to retell 'Tony and the Snark' in sequence, and began to create our Secret Rule writing. Some of us can't wait to let the TRUTH be known in our stories!

Both groups have now reviewed all of the 5 Themes of Geography and are preparing to create collages of examples! We will have a quiz on these themes next week! Please continue to review your study guides.

In Math today, we learned about estimating sums and differences. The students had fun trying their hand at estimating and clustering. Tomorrow, we will explore estimating products and quotients.

Science class took a trip to the center of the earth and discovered the differences in each layer. Through the streaming videos and Promethean Board, the students took notes on the different layers. Wednesday we will review the layers and Thursday will have a test.

Homework:
Language Arts - Storyboards are due completed tomorrow. Work on draft in Writing.
Math - page 17, 8-23
Social Studies - Find or draw 4 pictures per theme for tomorrow.
