Exploring the properties of seeds in fruits!

The class had so much fun investigating seeds!

 Do you know what the most important seed is?  Stay tuned for the answer soon!

 The students had to count the number of seeds in their fruit and sketch the seeds.  Later we will create seed drawings and study where these seeds originated from.  We have been integrating migration in our IB unit.

Homework for Tuesday, November 29

Rats of NIMH: Chapters 12-15 and the worksheet that goes along with those chapters are due on Thursday! Feel free to take a post-it note for writing down unfamiliar words you find as you read!

Math: Finish the worksheet we started in class. Make sure you keep your work organized and easy to read and follow!
Here are some extra tips:
-Why can't we add the two numbers? Because they have different denominators.
-What do we have to do to add the two numbers? Make their denominators the same!
-Remember: Whatever you do to the denominator, you must do to the numerator! (Just remember to keep the whole number the same!)
-If your fractions add up to be improper fractions (fractions where the numerator is larger than the denominator), remember to change it to a mixed number (a whole number with a fraction) then continue adding.
If you still need help, try looking on Scholasticstudyjams.com under the fractions videos :)

Don't forget! IS Weekly and the worksheet that goes along with it is due Friday and we have no Hoosier Hike this week (but feel free to get a head start on it).
