Welcome to our class blog. Our blog will be used as a tool to keep you updated on what we are doing in our classroom through reflections of classroom experiences, celebrations, and classroom news. Students will have opportunities to complete fun activities from the Blog that relate back to classroom learning.

Fractions, Force, and Fun!

Math: In math we have learned about EQUIVALENT fractions. We discovered that equivalent means EQUAL. For example if half of a pizza is eaten it can be the same as eating 2/4, 4/8, 6/12, 5/10, or 3/6.


Science: We learned that gravity pulls us down to Earth. We watched a video of a dropping race from the Apollo 15 mission. It helped us learn that objects will fall and hit the ground at the same time. The heavier things are the harder they fall.

  4. This is Abby again correcting the spelling and punctuation in my post. It should say:
    1. Magnets are not attracted to plastic, only metal.
    2. In space, gravity pulls things together, not down.
    3. No corrections. :)

    1. Magnetism pulls the north and south pole together.
    2. There are two sides of magnets the north side and the south side.
    3. Did you know that two south poles do not go together. Same with the north poles.

    Thank you,

    1. I learned that when both North poles placed next to one another they repel.
    2. Gravity can pull two objects together.
    3. No matter what speed an object has it always goes back to Earth.
