Wonderful Wednesday!!!
We began the day practicing for
our student le conferences tomorrow.
Next we were off to French and
then Gym.
After first recess and lunch we
dove into math. Today we talked about making patterns based on their attributes.
Attributes are a way that we can use to describe. Here are the attributes we
are focusing on:
Next, we looked at patterns that
have two changing attributes:
Then we worked in partners to
make patterns with two changing attributes. We each made two patterns and our
partner needed to figure out the two changing attributes and the pattern core.
Lastly, we worked on our homework
related to patterning using two attributes.
Following math, we continued
practicing for our student led conferences.
After second recess and lunch we reviewed the main points from the video we watched last class about
structures. We discussed how steel beams are used to help support buildings,
and that those beams have to be strong. We also discussed that when architects
design buildings, they need consider the purpose of the building, among many
other factors. Then we looked at some structural materials and the purpose
of different structures (many of them were designed to hold a load).
o
Wood, metal, brick etc.
Next, we looked at various
structures and discussed their purpose. Example: The purpose of a house is so
that we have a place to live that keeps us warm and dry; the purpose of a
bridge is to travel over a gap in land. We then completed a structures activity
in groups.
At the end of the day, we
continued to practice for our student led conferences.
