  1. I hate to type it ,but my least favorite activity was the Ben Franklin poster because my partner was almost gone the hole peirod and it was really messy! I could improve this by putting my mind to it and worked harder!!!

  4. My least favorite was learning about the landforms. It didnt seem very interesting because we talked about them a lot last year in my Social Studies class. Maybe you could spend less time teaching it, and just refresh the kids' memories.

    P.S. Is that Simon Cowell as the little icon thing? If so it is an EXCELLENT choice!

  5. I didn't really enjoy the foldables or the test that came afterward. It was a lot to remember for our little brains (no offense to the fifth grade!). I think it could be improved by having us draw more pictures. It would make the information easier to understand.

  6. I agree with Olivia another thing about the fodables is that there was TO MUCH WRITING.
