Tuesday, February 28th

We had another busy day!

Students continued their exploration of tenths, working to shade area models representing mixed fractions. They also created equivalent equations in fraction and decimal form.

We continued our inquiry into movements as a result of force by using sheep in a jeep to explore acceleration.  Students worked to create a ramp.  After taking measurements of the distance that the jeep traveled, they then changed the ramp elevation.  We will continue this inquiry tomorrow.

Sheep in a Jeep

Students inquired into the movement in a picture that represents Manifest Destiny.  They described the movement in the people, other movement, and why they believed that the movement was occurring.  From here, they were able discuss and explain Manifest Destiny.  Ask your child to tell you more!

Don't forget to complete the parent survey.
