4th-6th Grade Co-op Week 12

Religion- Mrs. Powell discussed with the children the theme for the 3rd Sunday in Lent. She also talked to them about the Stations of the Cross.

Latin- Mrs. Powell went over Lesson 11 with the students. They were taught predicate nominatives and predicate adjectives. Some students volunteered to read aloud the Latin sentence they wrote for homework.

English- I read aloud the story from ILL lesson 40. We discussed indentations at the beginning of a paragraph, how many paragraphs were in the story, and the main thought of each paragraph.Children are to complete this lesson at home.

Science- Children got to examine the inside and outside of a dissected snake while we discussed reptiles.

History- We discussed the geography of Ancient Greece and how the land effects the way people live. The students were introduced to Greek city-states, the differences between monarchy, aristocracy, and democracy. We also talked about King Darius, and began discussing the Persian Wars, stopping after the Battle of Marathon. We will continue the discussion at our next class after the field trip!
