Math...
Kids are working hard on creating their fraction cards to represent different fractions. Some of the fractions are improper (the numerator is larger than the denominator). When making their improper fractions kids are learning that these fractions are equivalent to another fraction. The visual (amking these fractions) is a nice way to introduce this topic! An example of this: 6/3 = 2. For this evening kids are asked to finish up their fraction cards if they have not already done this in class. We will be playing a fraction game in class tomorrow with these cards.
Writing...
Homework for writing includes an article on Helen Keller. Kids are asked to find and write out the 10 most important facts found in this article and circle the THREE most important facts. The three most important facts are suppose to be the MAIN IDEAS and the other facts found are the SUPPORTING DETAILS. This assignment is due tomorrow.
