We had a busy day with our curriculum work as well!
In math, we are getting into our multiplication unit and working with arrays. Today, each student received a number, and their job is to come up with all of the arrays that go with that number in order to find all of the factors (eg; for the number 8, the arrays would represent 1x8, 8x1, 2x4, 4x2, and therefore the factors of 8 are 1, 2, 4 and 8). We will continue this project tomorrow and learn some new vocabulary as well!
In Science, we are wrapping up our nutrition unit this week! We are finishing up our food posters and will present them to the class on Friday. I will try to take some pictures of our final products and post them here on the blog. We are also writing a paragraph this week to go with our nutrition unit. We did some sentence work today and filled out our paragraph hands, a graphic organizer to help us organize our thoughts before we begin writing paragraphs.
In Language Arts, last week we read a story about the Titanic. This week we are going to do some more research on the who, what, when, why/how of the Titanic and then we are going to make Glogs with our information! A Glog is an on-line, interactive poster. When we are finished making them, I will post links to them on this site!
We are not having Social Studies this week in order to fit in the rest of our Science projects and our Titanic Glogsters for Language Arts.
