Week ending Nov.7, 2019

Math - students have been learning how to determine the area of a rectangle or square by applying the formula of length x width. Problems involving determining the missing side length of a given rectangle after being given the area have also been explored.
Students also did some work around multiplication of 2 digit by 1 digit numbers with a focus being on how to multiply using multiples of 10.
Students can access practice in these areas by using the following links:

Science - students have wrapped up their study around Evidence and Investigation and completed a unit review exam this week. Students are encouraged to regularly review this material throughout the year because it will come up again regularly and as we approach closer to the Provincial Achievement exams.
Our next unit will be Air and Aerodynamics which ties in closely with the unit of Flight. Some of the initial topics we will be exploring include air composition and properties of air.

Review materials for all science topics can be located through my D2L page:
