Wait until you see what we've been up to...

Today in Math we continued to review and practice our place value skills. Today we moved on to practicing working with numbers up to one million. Using base ten block we compared one to a million. Many of us were shocked at just how big one million is. Did you know that if we tried to build a millions cube with base ten blocks, it would be a cubic metre? We will continue to practice working with numbers to one million in future classes. 

We have an upcoming quiz in Social Studies (Monday) on the provinces/territories and their capitals. Today the students and I reviewed both. We labelled both on a map as a class. We listened to and sang along with some of the songs that we have heard in class. Students also worked in teams of 2-3 to play the "All About Canada" games from Sheppard Software on our Chromebooks. All of these resources, as well as a copy of the quiz are available under "Mapping" on the "Grade 5 -- Social Studies" page. Please help your student review and be prepared for our quiz on Monday. There is also a map of Canada that include provinces, territories, and capitals at the back of each student Agenda. 

In French today, we reviewed the numbers from 0-31. 
​


We discussed many of the patterns that students can use to help them recognize and recall numbers. We also sang along to a number of songs that can help us to review our numbers. They are all included on a playlist under "French." We will continue to review numbers in upcoming classes. We also got moving with this fun DPA activity:
​ 


In Art today, the students and I discussed some of the patterns that occur naturally in nature. In fact, there are 5 main patterns that you can see if you look closely: spiral, meander, explosion, packing, and branching. Together we brainstormed some examples. My favourite was thinking of a palm tree as an example of an explosion pattern. Check out some more examples in the video below:
​


We are going to be working on a piece of artwork inspired by Andy Warhol to represent these patterns in upcoming classes.
