Off to a busy start!

Happy Tuesday, everyone!
We are back after our long Thanksgiving weekend and didn't waste anytime getting straight to work!

In Math this morning we worked through two word problems that could be solved using our knowledge of multiples and the "ppcm." We will look at more every day applications of multiples throughout the week.
We also worked on our next mental math strategy, which is quite similar to our strategy from last week ("Cutting and Pasting Zeros") except now we are multiplying larger numbers.


We then got to work in groups to plan the "choreography" for our PPCM Sambas!
Please ask me what multiple I'll be representing and what movement I've chosen to do!


We ended our morning in Science with another sorting activity. This time we worked independently to sort dried beans. We started off all together to create a word bank on the board that we could refer to during our work time. The words we came up with described the size, colour, shape and texture of the beans.
Mme Careen collected our sheets once we were done and will read over each of our classification keys to decide what our next steps in Science will be.
