Friday Afternoon Post (March 6, 2020)

Howdy Y'all!

Let's see what we've been working on this week...

Science

We explored the characteristics of minerals in Science Lab with Mrs. Sechrist!

Math
This week, we used an area model to help solidify our understanding of relationships between the numerators and denominators of equivalent fractions. We then use the relationships to calculate equivalent fractions.

Our next lesson had us compare common fractions that have related denominators. We identified the relationship between the denominators to change one fraction only.

Today we used common multiples to help convert fractions to the same denominator to make comparisons. We also consider strategies for finding common denominators in order to compare fractions.

Reader's 

We practiced making inferences with the novels we are reading, especially focusing in on having a thorough explanation by using transitions and sentence starters as a way to help us record our thinking!

 


Writer's
We focused on writing awesome persuasive pieces during the WPA by using persuasive-writing strategies and referring to our writer's checklist for additional persuasive tips and tricks!

We had Crazy Hair/Hat/Sock Day on Monday in honor of Read Across America!

And that's a wrap folks! Cheers!
