Read below for a recap of our day. Find science videos, Black Belt Math support material, and suggested homework. Note: It is best to view our blog on the computer.
Presentations:
Science Time:
This week we learned about Potential Energy (stored energy) and Kinetic Energy (the energy of motion.)
Keep up the good work mastering facts. Today we handed out math belts.
Please note: It is okay to stay on a level as long as it is necessary to master the material. Perhaps some students it will need to take several weeks to master +1 and +2 addition before for moving on to +3 and +4. That is perfectly fine and as it should be. The belts are a helpful way to reward hard work and give incentive to mastery at each and every level.
You will find flashcards, skip counting videos, and drill sheets to aid your child in the mastery of the four basic operations. http://stonetablestemclub.blogspot.com/p/black-belt-math.html (Also linked at the top of this blog.)
What to bring to class on October 9th:
Students are encouraged each week to come prepared for class with the following:
3 ringed binder
A short science presentation. (No more than 2 minutes)
Black Belt Math Status. (signed log sheet)
Potential Energy (stored energy) and Kinetic Energy (the energy of motion.) http://studyjams.scholastic.com/studyjams/jams/science/matter/energy-and-matter.htm
Online Text and Videos: CK-12
Presentations:
Lots of great presentations today. We learned about parrots, buoyancy, fingerprints, and a couple of great demonstrations.
Science Time:
This week we learned about Potential Energy (stored energy) and Kinetic Energy (the energy of motion.)
Next, we made paper airplanes with rubber band force (Tension Force.)
Here is the link to the paper airplane template just in case they would like to make another kind. http://www.funpaperairplanes.com/
Math Time:
Students teamed up and played a math game. K-3 Played math Tic-Tack-Toe, and 4-6 Connect 4 Math.Please note: It is okay to stay on a level as long as it is necessary to master the material.
