Next Week: This week, we will finish up our geometry unit. We will classify 2-dimensional figures based on the presence or absence of parallel or perpendicular lines or based on the presence or absence of angles of a specified size. 

Unit 9 Assessment: April 11th

Help from home: practice multiplication (two-digit x two-digit) and division (three-digit divided by one-digit) equations. 

This Week : We explored electric energy and how it  transfers/travels through conductors of electricity. We determined the difference between thermal and light energy that electric energy can create, as well as conductors and insulators and their differences. 

Next Week : We will conduct experiments with conductors and insulators of electrical energy. We will determine how energy flows through a circuit and how conductors/insulators can change paths of energy. 

This Week : We learned about Texas at the start of World War 2, and the major events/Texas heroes of that war. 

Next Week : We will learn about advancements in science and technology after WW2, including changes to the oil and natural gas industry, space travel, and population growth.
