This week in Science... we are finishing our storyboards in order to create our video documentaries about our elements. Students should type their script into the template found on angel and send it to me or print it out and bring it in to class by Wednesday, Nov. 12. In class we will also be looking at different properties of ocean water through some experiments -- properties include salinity, temperature, and pressure.
This week in Social Studies... we are continuing to discover what motivated European explorers to head across the open seas to new lands. Why did they go? What were they looking for? We will also explore some obstacles they faced as well as accomplishments.
This week in Math... we will explore our place value system and how it's a base-10 system -- each place value is ten times greater than the one before it... so how much is one million really? Could be tap on our desks one million times in one day? One thousand times? Could there be number systems that are not based on tens... for example the binary number system? What do all those ones and zeros mean? We'll find out!!
