Math Writing Homework - due tomorrow.
Chopstick Problem - Suppose I'm planning a Chinese meal for everyone in our class. How many chopsticks would I need to bring?
Students are explaining in writing how to solve the chopstick problem we discussed yesterday. I'm interested in how they think about the problem. They should be using a combination of pictures, numbers and words.
Story Writing Homework - story written in the style of David Shannon with an animal getting on a form of transportation and visiting other animals due Tuesday Feb. 6 complete with adjectives and conversation.
Ask your student about our tuning fork experiment this morning. I didn't go off very well but they should be able to explain that sound is a vibration that travels through air to our ear. The harder we hit the tuning fork the louder the sound was. When we put it into water we should have small ripples because the water acts as resistance to slow down the vibration but we could not get the tuning fork to vibrate enough. Perhaps we were to gentle!
