In math this week, we wrapped up Unit 2: Patterns and Estimation for Multi-Digit Multiplication. We began Unit 3: Strategies and Properties of Mutli-Digit Multiplication. The parent flyer link with the video to explain the concepts in this upcoming chapter was sent in this week's newsletter. It is also under the Parent Flyers and Video tab on the main page of this blog. As we begin this chapter on multiplying multi-digit numbers, it is important that students are fluent with their multiplication facts. I will be sending home multiplication flashcards this week for homework. Please have your students practice their multiplication facts each night.
During science, we began our two week unit on Marshmallow Flyers! Students will be working in pairs to use the knowledge of force and motion to construct a flyer that will launch their marshmallow the greatest possible distance. On Friday, students began using their knowledge to begin experimenting with their materials to build their marshmallow flyers. Here are some pictures of students experimenting with their materials to begin building their flyers.
this helped me with a project of my own
