We just had our semester switch and have a whole new group of students! Our first unit is Geography! 3rd grade classes are learning about the geography in the Caribbean. How many countries are there in the Caribbean? Where is Puerto Rico? Where is the Dominican Republic? The 5th grade class is learning about the geography in Mexico and Central America. We are finding Mexico and Guatemala on the map and trying to find out how many states are in Mexico. Did you know how many states Mexico has?! 1st Grade is learning to find the United States on a map of the world and trace a line to Spain. That’s a long way! We are learning what colors the flag is and saying them in Spanish. 2nd graders are preparing for a virtual trip to Costa Rica! First we are learning where it is in the world and the other 6 countries that make up Central America. Did you know that Costa Rica is part of North America? 4th Grade is starting a unit about the geography of South America and Bolivia. There are 13 countries in South America. We will be focusing on Bolivia and are getting ready to make some 3-D maps with Playdough!
