Today in 5th grade we...

- Reviewed figurative language, and saw how it was used to create imagery. We then read a passage of Hatchet to identify which senses the imagery play upon. 

- Created an interactive tool that helped us to identify prime and composite numbers as well as factors and multiples. 

- Explored the empires that ruled Mesopotamia after the fall of the Sumerians and how each one of them paved the way for modern civilizations. 

- Saw how humans can change ecosystems. We then connected this lesson to what is happening currently in Indonesia with the burning forests. 

- Practiced for our language festival. 

Homework:
Social Studies - Finish section 4 of your study guide
Math - Finish "what I learned", "proof", and "reflection" for your math journal
