Yes, I learned many things this week like how to find the area,volume, and perimeter of a shape. I also learned that rocks were created in different ways. Before I never really thought about how rocks were created and where rocks came from. I probably learned more that I forgot about. It might come back to me someday. Have a great weekend everyone! Bye!

I learned a lot this week, about all subjects. I learned a lot in math. I now know how to find the area and perimeter of a shape, and though I also now know how to find volume, it's still a little bit confusing for me. I learned a lot about the Earth's layers, and some really cool rocks! I never really knew how much rocks rock. Also, if it counts, today I perfectly understood the true effect of chilling ice cream on a steaming hot day. Thanks for the floats, Mrs. Van! Well, I hope everyone has a great weekend. Okay, bye!

This week I learned a lot of things like the layer's of earth, formulas in math and how rocks are made. But manly I learned about Earth's layer's, it's so cool that scientists know what the deeper layers are made of because there so deep in the Earth! Also in math I learned how to find the area of circles. I know the formula and I understand how to do it. Well, bye!

I learned about the different kinds of rocks and how they are made. It's cool how you can see the different layers in a sedimentary rock! I had heard about igneous rocks before, but I never knew what they actually were. Now I know!

This week I learned that rocks are made by molten lava that comes out of a volcano and forms the shape of a rock with lots of pressure. With even more pressure the rock becomes sand and then the process starts again! I think that its so cool that all the rock were once a different rock!

I learned in the Bill video that rocks are made of molten lava and that forms the shape of a rock. I also learned how to find area of a circle which came in handy.

I have learned a lot of new things of what is inside of the Earth. I now know what the four main layers are and what their temperatures, composition, and location of each one. I also learned new words from the Bill Nye videos. The ice cream floats defiantly hit the spot on Friday they were so good for such a hot day. Thank you Mrs. Van!

I learned that rocks are made of lava from volcanoes and anl lot of pressure. I didn't know that with even more pressure the rock turns into sand. See you all tomorrow.

Hi! I learned how to calculate the area of a circle using the radius this week! I can now use this for maybe next year and or helping my little brother do this next year! Well, see you all tomorrow! Bye for now...

Yes, I learned something new this week, I have learned how to find area and the perimeter of a shape and volume. I also learned of how rocks are made, different types of rocks and where they came from. I think that's it but I feel like I learned some other stuff that week but I forget. Bye!

This week i learned that all sand is rock. I never knew that before the bill nye video we watched told us that. I also learned that the earth has 4 layers, the crust, mantle, inner core, and outer core.

I have learned more about rocks. Yes, rocks and how important they can be to us. I learned this from the Bill Nye video. I learned that there are many different types of rocks that are formed in different ways. See you all tomorrow! :D

For math, I learned how to figure out the volume, area, and much more about angles this week. I think I am ready for the test. Be ready all of you guys! Also, I learned and memorized the informations for the Earth's layers and understood. I learned different kinds of rocks(not exactly, but few of them). I also learned that the road is getting narrrower if it's going farther, and the trees has to be horizontal not on the road's line. Wow, I think I learnd a lot of things! I hope we could draw the second step tomorrow, because we didn't do that on last Friday, even if we're supposed to. But, I had lots of fun las Friday, because of the celebration!

We have learned how to measure the area of a quadrilateral. I find it kind of fun because I understand what you are suppose to do. See you all today.

I learned the formulas in math, and it suprisingly makes lots of sense to me. To be more specific I learnt how to find the area of a circle.
