Math - None - We spent the first half of our math block correcting last week's chapter test. We also started chapter 9. Students completed a problem of the day, and we did a chapter introduction page together in class, focusing on the vocabulary we will encounter in this chapter. For chapter 9, we will be relating fractions to decimals and money.
Science - None - We continued reading about the layers of the earth. We watched a quick Discovery Education video clip on volcanoes and the eruption of Mount St. Helens. We also did a reading comprehension packet on the layers of the earth.
Language Arts - None - We are piloting a new reading series for the next couple of weeks. For this unit, we will be reading about earthquakes. This is perfect, since we are also studying earthquakes in science! We spent today building up some background knowledge. We watched two Discovery Education videos on plate tectonics and earthquakes. We also completed a reading comprehension packet on the tools that scientists use to study earthquakes. We practiced identifying the main idea and details of this article.
Social Studies - None - We took our unit 3 test today.
