Inquiry into Language
Today students worked on finishing their literature circle role that was assigned for this week. We will have our first literature circle meeting tomorrow for all groups. Please make sure you come to the meeting prepared with all your work. Literature circles are due tomorrow
We also had time to practice our typing on Typing Club.
Hatchet
Inquiry into Mathematics
Today in math we learned how to subtract fractions. Subtracting fractions is very similar to adding fractions. First, we must find a common denominator, then you can subtract your numerators.
Unit of Inquiry
Today in UOI we learned how to classify, more specifically the 'tree classification' system. As a class we classified the galaxy and branched off to the earth, continents, countries and provinces as an example. Then moved on to classifying things we may use in our everyday life, such as a cook book and books in the library.
Biodiversity is another short unit. We will have roughly 3-3.5 weeks of learning and 1/5-2 weeks for our summative, which will be due sometime during the last full week of April. More information to come in the upcoming weeks.
Thanks to 'A' for sharing some action about biodiversity and sharing a short clip with the class!
