We missed you today! (11/5)  

Posted in ,

After we completed the Caught Ya, we reviewed the wordly wise words for next week. The power point is below and the words can be reviewed here.



We also reviewed the spelling words through a game (always, especially, laughed, myself, whole) and the next page in our cursive books.

For math, we completed an experiment. If we were to toss one of six pattern blocks 50 times, which one would be more likely to land on its edge? We made predictions, then tested our theories to find out. The three pattern blocks we started with were the square, the triangle and the trapezoid. The other three blocks were "doubled up". Two triangles were taped together, as were two trapezoids and two squares. Do you think that by doubling the pattern block the chances of it landing on its edge increased?

After this, we discussed a line plot, which is pictured in the power point below. After looking at it carefully, we found the median, range, maximum and minimum of the data.



This afternoon we held rotation. Your group finished reading their assigned section, so they voted to read more about the Timucua religion and their beliefs in magic. (Pages 96 and 97) We read it together and took notes on a new page.

Seatwork included many things. Students were given a list of things to accomplish including:

1. Pet Show Draft on I Can Write Online
2. Complete the food chain artwork (check the rubric)
3. Math journal page 65 and 66
4. Finish Manatee Blues comic strip

All of these items are located in your math journal and will come home for you today.

We hope you are feeling better! See you soon!
Mrs. Neal
