Hello,

Here is what we did today.

Math: Today we worked on mixed fractions! We started by talking about pizza's and if we order too many and cant finish them all we will have some whole pizzas and some left over. This is when we use a mixed fraction. We did an example on the board and then we did some work on the floor with the cardboard pizza's. They did really well and have a solid understanding of them. Next we did some worksheets to understand the basics and then did some word problems in which they had to determine the number of slices left. They are to determine how many slices are in the whole pizzas first but multiplying or adding, and then add the extras.

Music: Please see Mr. Oliver's blog for more information.
Language: We continued to read Heidi today. We read chapter 12 and 13. Next we completed the worksheets and discussion questions. They are loving this book!

Lunch/Recess

Gym: Please see Mr. B's blog for more information.
UOI: Today we presented our debate! They practiced and then we did our debate. They learned that neither side is better because you both need each other in order to survive! Good job everyone!
