Hello,
This morning, the students put the finishing touches on their travel brochures and slide shows. We were missing six students today, due to the basketball tournament and illnesses, so we decided to do our presentations and travel expo on Monday.
In Math, we worked on equivalent fractions, lowest terms, and ordering fractions, decimals and percentages, from least to greatest.
Next, we did some problem solving, finding free throw percentages for two basketball players, by converting from fractions. Then we discovered if a local business had earned enough money to buy a lantern, using our knowledge of percentages. It was interesting to see the variety of strategies the students used to solve the problems.
Don't forget, it's a PD Day tomorrow.
Enjoy the game Friday night! Go Sens Go!
Have a great weekend!
Mr. Skinner
