Math Problems of the Week
If we can't use our skills to solve problems, then do we even HAVE skills?
The goal for this week is to continue on with our division and multiplication strategies. I am going to include some straight up practice sheets, but also problems to solve for each one. I'm looking forward to SEEING your work and strategies. Remember, it doesn't tell me very much when you hand in your answers but you erase or don't show your work!
Multiplication: In Grade 4, you are expected to be able to multiply 2 and 3-digit numbers by a 1-digit number. I have included those sheets for practice, but also a couple to challenge you if you're looking for that.
Sheets: 2-digit x 1-digit, 3-digit x 1-digit, 2-digit x 2-digit, 3-digit x 2-digit
Problems to Solve: Multiplication Word Problems
Division: In Grade 4, you are expected to be able to divide 2-digit numbers by a 1-digit number. You are also expected to know how to show if there is a remainder in the answer. I will include a couple of sheets to practice that skill, and a couple to challenge you if you're looking for that. There also some problems to solve with your skills.
Sheets: 2-digit ÷ 1-digit, 3-digit ÷ 1-digit, 3-digit ÷ 2-digit
Problems to Solve: Division Word Problems

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!!

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: How has this whole experience been for you so far? What has it been like working and learning from home? What has been challenging? What has been great? I would love to hear as many pros and cons as you can give me! Remember, a paragraph has a topic sentence and a closing sentence!
Supplementary Writing Activity
An Hour of Silence
In a world where there are so many distractions, it’s amazing what we notice when we’re silent. Your challenge is to stay silent for an entire hour. After the hour, I want you to write about your experience. Where were you? What did you see and hear? What did you notice that was new to you? How did the experience make you feel? Was it difficult or easy? Try to make sure you give yourself time to start writing as soon as possible after your hour is up so you don't forget all you experienced! Even better, take notes while you're silent!
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
All light must come form a SOURCE.
Some light sources are NATURAL and some are ARTIFICIAL.
Think up or observe as many items as you can throughout the week and show me how many different sources of light you found, and indicate which ones are ARTIFICIAL and which ones are NATURAL.
Hmm... are some kinda both?
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.
