With the holiday breaks approaching, we know many learners and parents are always looking for extra ways to practice their math skills at home. The screencast below shows directions on how to utilize an online math resource the learners have access to called Think Central. This online resource goes directly with their Go Math workbooks.
LA/SS:
The learners were able to show off their wonderful "Fish" projects this week. We were amazed by the variety and excitement they shared. We also had a mystery skype with Mr. Bloecher who was in Honduras. The students had a great time putting their geography and questioning skills into action to figure out the mystery. They also had a chance to hear about what everyday life is like in Honduras. In Social Studies, students took on the role of an early English settler to explain what challenges they faced coming to the New World.
Math/Science:
In Math this week, we continued working on our Holiday Dinner PBL. The learners are multiplying and dividing fractions in order to adjust the holiday recipes to fit the number of guests they will have at their holiday dinner. In Science, we wrapped up our discussions on force, motion, and energy, and began discussing how to cite sources for research with the help of Mrs. Montgomery. We will be using these skills for our next Science engineering design project after the break.
