Predicting, Temperature and Thermometers, Landmark Numbers

Reminder: There is NO SCHOOL tomorrow Feb 1st as this is a day in lieu of Remembrance Day. 

Literacy

This week in Literacy we are working on making predictions. 

This strategy will help me have a deeper understanding of what I am reading.

We read a short story and had to make predictions Before, During and After Reading.

Temperature and Thermometers

This week we continued to practice reading a thermometer. 

This week we experimented and made hypothesis's about temperature of water at different levels of heat. We had to use the thermometer and take the temperature of the water. From the temperatures we had to figure out which water was hot, which was cold and which was warm. 

We brainstormed some other things that we would like to take the temperature of. 

Next week we will go outside and within other areas of the school to measure more temperatures! 

Ask me what I would like to record the temperature of?

Landmark Numbers and Decades

Today we continued working with Decades and figuring out which decade a number would fall between and where the number would be put on the number line, knowing which 2 decades it was between:

We then practiced using open number lines to add 2 double-digit numbers together. 

This is different than when we looked at how many numbers were in-between a bigger number and a smaller number. This time we can just start at the most efficient number and add our jumps, skips and hops to get a total.
