After learning a way to take notes of what we read, the students had the chance to try it for themselves using our science chapter about electricity

In math, we learned how to estimate the sum of numbers

We also learned how to measure using feet and inches. Students took turns measuring each other's height. 

Mr. Smith, who works for Amaren, took us on a trip around Zion to see how our school gets its electricity

He taught us about the importance of electrical safety
