This week,

In writing, students are finishing their event stories where they follow the journey of an ant. They worked on developing a sequence of related events that lead to an ants successful journey across our classroom interacting with many obstacles on the way. They are incorporating a structured sequence, a great beginning, excellent description and the use of transition words linking the events.

In math, students continue to develop their skills in division showing their understanding of creating equal groupings related to division equations. We have also connected this with their multiplication knowledge showing this connection through arrays, groupings and number families.

In social studies the students have examined ideas  of  goods and services and how these differ in the four countries we are studying.

In science, hearing and sound continues as the students gain understanding of how vibrations effect pitch, decibel levels relating to safe hearing, and creating instruments to test these ideas.

Here is this week's homework.
