MATH:

Today we estimated and measured area. Remember that area is the inside of an object. We can count the squares to find area or use multiplication.  

It is looking as though our unit math test will take place on Monday, December 5. A review will be sent home that weekend.

Homework – MMS pg 155-156

Unit of Inquiry:

Today we began our UOI summative. This summative will be due Friday, December 2! Since we only have a week, students are expected to draw and write about a light and sound object to help them get back to shore, as they are stranded in the middle of a lake. They must create and draw one hearing aid and one sight aid to help them get back to shore. ALL WORK IS TO BE COMPLETED AT SCHOOL.

Homework – Summative due Friday, December 2

I have been out of the classroom the past couple of days working on the Self Study with Mrs. Haag. A big thank you to Ms. M who has filled in for me. I look forward to being back with my kids!

I hope you have a wonderful night!
