Chrome Books Have Arrived!

Chromebooks

Chromebooks are an expen$if privilege and if you abuse them you lose them. You must listen to the teacher(s) or else your cover will be SHUT!!!!! Right now we are working on a google slide called Earth Science. It Is an exciting thing to do and very creative. Well I don’t want to spoil anything so…………...

Cloudy with a Chance..

  

Here are some of our cloud journals.

I had the children create tally charts of the types of clouds on each student's poster.  It was a great way to get the kids moving around and looking at each poster. We took the data and made a class graph.  We used the four major types and grouped the combos as other.

Stepping Into Math by Alexis

Pedometers are a tool that help you track how many steps you take in a day. We started using them in math. There really fun to use but, they have some rules to them.

#1- You can't bring them home.

#2-NO shaking them!!!!!! That's cheating and it can break quicker. 

#3-You abuse them you lose them for the entire day. 

#4- You must take your own number. Each pedometer will have a number on them. 

Mrs Hall will assign you a number and that is the pedometer you take but not keep. At the end of the day you log in how many steps you took in the calendar in your planner. And eventually you will convert them into feet, yards, and miles.

Mrs. Hall wrote a grant and people donated money to this project. Not only are we going to use them for math but we are getting exercise!

Mrs. Hall loves this "Brain Break".  We love getting up and moving!!!!

5th Grade Long Division

Long division is easy once you learn it. One way to remember how to do long division is:

• Dad divide 
• Mom multiply 
• Sister subtract 
• Brother bring down 
• Rover repeat or remainder

Another way that will help you with long division is knowing your facts. you might not get it at first but eventually you will understand it by being determined and trying your best.You could also check your work with  multiplication.

A Visit from Aunt Sally

Aunt Sally by, Alexis

 This week we had a very special guest… Aunt Sally!! 

Aunt Sally is Mrs. Hall's Aunt. Aunt Sally is a very crazy,but a fun person as well. She taught us a very fun,but important lesson.

PEMDAS is the lesson we learned.P stands for parentheses,the E stands for exponents and powers,the M stands for multiplication,the D stands for division, the A stands for addition,and the S stands for subtraction.To learn it we did hopscotch and a chant.I hope that this taught you something.
