MATH
Welcome to the second semester of 5th grade. Students just completed their study of unit 5 in math class where they reviewed the meanings of fractions, decimals and percent notations for rational numbers. We focused on the conversion among these notations, often emphasizing the fact that embedded in every fraction is a division problem. These fractions concepts will be further explored in the latter half of unit 6 which we will begin today. We will start reviewing data landmarks and methods for organizing data. Students will be provided with a variety of experiences with displaying and analyzing data.
SCIENCE
We are in the midst of exploring geology in science class. We are asking the questions:
What is Below Our Feet? How Does It Get There? Through readings, videos and rock and mineral observations, students are learning about the properties of rocks and minerals and how rocks form and change over time.
