Using Mystery Science, we used marbles to study motion. This is a great story of a boy, his Grandfather and a loyal dog. The ending gets me every time. We had to pass out some tissues for a few tears. Great book!
Today we read and discussed a great article in our Interactive Text - A World Without Worlds. Then we had a great discussion on the importance of rules and what happens when we disagree about the rules.
We continue to learn about fractions. Today we worked with partners using fraction strips. Then we added some important notes to our math notebooks.
Here are some videos of the energy lesson we finished today. This week we are using Kahoot competitions to test our understanding of fractions. It's a great way to make learning fun and engaging. Check out our Top Five!
Yesterday, we started the last science unit on motion and energy. The students had a great time testing two different types of rubber bands. They learned how energy is stored.
All thirty-three students in my class met or exceeded their AR goal. Lots of reading and lots of quizzes. Hard work pays off!
After many months of work, we met our goal of reading 10 million words as a class. Time for a party!
