We started math this morning with the word equal. We determined that equal is having the exact same. We then made equal groups using 12 blocks. We put the blocks into groups of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. We drew the blocks and wrote the multiplication sentence. We found out that 12 can not always be put into equal groups. Students then had the choice of what number they wanted to work with - 18, 20, 24, 36.
We started the science unit of Testing Materials and Design and today we completed our first experiment - will a square shape support more mass than an arch shape? We conducted a fair test and recorded our observations. We are becoming great scientists!
Truth - the 5th pillar of the month at Beddington Heights based on the Seven Sacred Teachings. We looked at the word for things we new for sure (number of vowels, root word, suffix ending) brainstormed connections we have to the word (my brother took the last cookie from the cookie jar and then said I took it) and what we think the word means (not lying). Then we watched a quick video on the Seven Teachings and our thinking was transformed so now we know that Truth is living with wisdom, love, respect, bravery, honesty and humility.
