Double Bar Graphs and Christmas Concert Ideas

Hello,

This morning, we started to work on our persuasive letters for the Kiva presentations. Each student picked a Kiva participant that they would like to present, and we discussed the criteria for the letter. I shared some exemplars of persuasive letters with the students on their Google Drives, for their reference, if they want to work on this task at home. We will continue to work on the letters in class tomorrow. Our goal is to convince our audience that our chosen person deserves the donation for their project.

In Math, we finished our bar graphs, gave and received feedback for improvement, and began to use the survey data to create double bar graphs. We are now breaking down the student data into responses by boys and girls. We will finish our double bar graphs in class, with our partners, in the morning.

For homework, the students are asked to brainstorm possible ideas for the Christmas concert. We will be planning our performance on Thursday and Friday this week.

As well, the students should continue to use Mathletics and Dreambox as we will be debating which program we like better next week.

Have a great evening.

Mr. Skinner
