We're continuing our research projects. We have begun collecting facts and will check a few more sources before organizing and compiling everything into one place. Then we will use our facts to start writing our non-fiction stories. Later in the week, we will begin thinking about the product we want to make to accompany our essays.
Math:
Fractions are continuing this week as we dive into eighths, sixths, and fifths. We will make a "fractionpiller" to show what we have learned and play a fun game to identify different fractions. We will also explore fractional parts found in pattern blocks. If a triangle is one third of the shape, what does the whole look like? Last, we will look at what happens when we have more than one whole and how we can count the fractional parts.
Science:
We are still working on our study of animals. We will look at food chains, animal adaptations, and different habitats and migration patterns. We also will study different life cycles and see how different creatures vary in their reproduction cycle.
