Math- We are learning about comparing fractions. We have been learning if the fraction is greater than, equal to, or less than one whole or a half. We are also comparing 2 fractions and seeing which one is bigger and which one is smaller. You use one of these signs: < = >. Reading- We are learning about the seven continents and the five Oceans. We are also learning about which is the largest continent, the smallest continent, hottest continent, and the coldest continent. The largest continent is Asia. The smallest continent is Australia. The hottest continent is Africa. The coldest continent is Antarctica. Writing- We are learning about prompt stories. Prompt stories are made up stories that are very fun to read. Our first prompt story was... You are taking your dog on a walk. Suddenly he looks at you and says, "Take me back to where I was born." We had to write about what happened next and include a beginning, middle, and end. Our second one was... You walk into your classroom one morning and sitting behind the desk is an alien. Are most recent one was... You wake up one morning to find you are on an island. Write what happens next and include a beginning, middle, and end. Science- We are learned about seeds. They come from plants, fruits, and few vegetables. Bush bean seed, pea seed, corn seed, and the sunflower seed. are the 4 kinds of seeds we worked with. Were seeing if the seeds can grow without soil. Some of them have started a sprout, some of them have started to shed, some of them have started to crack, and some of them have just stayed the same. We have been filling them up with water and bleach everyday and then go check on them to see if they started to sprout.
Thank you to Concordia for letting us go on the fieldtrip! We had so much fun getting to learn about percussion music and see all the different instruments. You have truly talented students!
