Students reviewed their understanding of powers today. They also reviewed a few concepts from the last two weeks, including factors, multiples, composites and prime numbers. Please practice concepts on Mathletics at home. In science, we reviewed the topic of energy conversion and did a Kahoot to practice identifying the difference energy conversions that take place in our everyday. Students need to know the different forms of energy (i.e. electrical, mechanical, kinetic, thermal (heat), sound, radiant (light), chemical, nuclear) Have a great weekend!

Today in Science: We built storage cells (batteries) out of lemons, paper clips, and pennies. Students are learning about the conversion of other energy forms to electric energy (i.e. chemical -> electric) Math; Reviewing recent concepts. Homework: Please ensure the student is practicing math concepts at home using Mathletics.

Happy Monday! Today in Math and Science Math: Students learned about prime factorization, using factor trees. We also learned about the difference between and prime and a composite number. Handouts: Prime factorization practice sheet Homework: do the associated Mathletics practice for prime factorization and composites Science: We are starting the new unit on Electrical Principles and TechnologiesStudents learned about various forms of energy and were able to research and identify examples for each form of energy. Handouts: Forms of energy notes and matching picture Homework: Watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8qmSzMwTkpk
