Historical Fiction
Recently we have been working on historical fiction. Before this, we were learning about the American Revolution. It was about the patriots and then colonists having a debate to see which one is fair. We got in groups and got information so we would be prepared. King George III was taxing the colonists. That is why they declared war! That is how the war started. Now we had to write in our journal and have specific parts and tell it to the patriots and so did the patriots to the colonists After the debate we took a survey. The survey was so we could get the books we wanted. We had to choose 3 options. So we could get one of them.One we got one of them we would start a book club. Then we would discuss the books we have been reading. In Conclusion we wrapped up the lesson with a debate. Then we took a survey to get the right books. Now we are going to start a new lesson. It will be the last lesson of the school year. This will be fun.
Global Day of Design
For day of design we made roller coasters with straws tape and glue. We were split into 3 teams and each team made a roller coaster. For a few days we got to work on the roller coasters. Each group got one hundred straws to build with. We all had to make a blueprint before we made the roller coasters. After that we got to build them. We all worked around the room. Once we knew what we wanted to be glued to our base which was cardboard we got it glued with hot glue by the teacher. In the end we had some pretty cool roller coasters! The other designs for the roller coasters were a funnel, another was 2 little ramps, and the last was some ramps and hills just everything, in the end we had some awesome roller coasters that we shared with you at open house!
Math
With fractions This week we took a math test which means… a new unit! Our first lesson of Unit 8 is challenging number stories. We had to decode where a prize could be found. This code was of letters in the alphabet. The first letter was L. We found this because in the number story the answer was 12. And, L is the 12th letter in the alphabet. Then we kept finding answers and decoding until we found the word was LIBRARY and it was very hard .Also this month in unit 7. We learned about number stories with gallons quarts pints and cups and and converting cups to pints pints to quarts and quarts to gallons as well as fractions .Also we get multi problem number stories with multiple problems that tried to trick you .
