Day 7
In math we
continued working on whole numbers. We took up yesterday’s homework. We then
began our next lesson using an organised list as a strategy to solve problems. We
practiced this strategy on different word problems. We managed to take up the
explore, connect and first practice problems in class. Students are asked to
complete the last practice question on p. 49 of the MMS textbook.
We began our
UOI time by being an audience to Christina’s presentation on what it means to be
balanced. Christina’s discussion time led to student contributions about their
lifestyles which we then analysed to determine if they were balanced. Thank
you, Christina!
Students
played with battery-operated toys today in order to observe energy
transformations. We spent time discussing different types of energy: solar,
sound, heat, kinetic, potential, chemical, mechanical, and electrical. Ask your
child to explain these energy types to you. Students then worked on a mind map
to show everything they have learned about electricity so far in this unit.
The class
(except students working their reading assessments) attended Gym and French
class today.
See you at
the Welcome BBQ later today!
