Math Problems of the Week
If we can't use our skills to solve problems, then do we even HAVE skills?
Fractions and Decimals
This week, we are going to relate fractions to decimals. After watching the videos, I would like you to complete the attached assignment in Google Classroom where you will show me how you can write decimals and their related base ten fraction.

LANGUAGE ARTS
Reading should be a constant in your life, whether you're at school or not! Please continue to access the digital reading options on our Language Arts page. Those of you with the ability to do so are encouraged to access RAZ-Kids. You can access leveled materials and answer questions to keep building your fluency and comprehension.
THIS IS A GOOD IDEA!!
THIS IS A GOOD IDEA!!
With our writing, we always want to make sure that we are paying attention to our neatness, punctuation and structure! We will continue to work on writing a new weekly paragraph every week. I will also try to have a "supplemental activity" every week as well to help stretch your skills. You can submit pieces of writing through the Google Classroom assignment that is posted. Here you can attach your work as a Google Doc, or a picture or scan of your actual written work. Let's try and see how it works!
Weekly Paragraph Write
Topic: Studies show that six-year-olds laugh 300 times per day and that adults laugh 15 times per day. Does this make sense in your life? Why is this?! Why do kids laugh more than adults? How do you feel about this statistic and about getting older? How often would you say you laugh now? How often do you hear your parents laughing?
Supplementary Writing Activity
The Ruler's Rules
YOU! Yes, you! You have become the ultimate, all-knowing, all-powerful, fantastic smelling, most-awesome ruler over all of Earth! Your task is to create a list of rules that the world must follow. What will your rules be? What will the world look like following your rules? Did you justify and explain each of your rules?
SCIENCE
We're going to start looking at Light & Shadows for Science. I will post one or more investigation questions for you to explore for the week. I will also try to include some hands-on activities you can do at home.
Weekly Science Question
Shadows change direction and size depending on the placement of the light source. Your task this week after watching the videos is to attempt to do the "Shifting Shadows" experiment sheets that are in Google Classroom. If you don't have a printer, please try to answer the questions and do the graph as neatly as possible on paper.
If you have time, create your own sundial that the second video shows you. We live in the Northern Hemisphere, so your gnomon should be pointing North! Even if your sundial experiences some failure, what did you notice about it's shadow at different times of the day? Why was it different throughout the day if your sundial materials didn't change?
SOCIAL STUDIES
Early Alberta, David Thompson & The Fur Trade
We are going to try to explore some of our history through some reader's theater supplied by the Rocky Mountain House Historic Site. Time to act and get dramatic! If you don't have puppets, I challenge you to find a way to perform these scripts out loud for someone every week. Get your family members to take on roles!
I will post a new script each week along with some photos and videos of anything I can find that would help. I would also like to know what FACTS you learn each new week from the scripts, photos and/or videos.
