Week March 14-17

Math:

This week we started chapter 1 on Patterns and equations. Students learned to fill input-output math tables following a given rule (ex. +3 or x2  or /5 ). They also practiced to find the mathematical rule when numbers in the table were given. We went a step further by doing the same exercises with a 2-step rule (ex. x3 + 2 ).








Science:

This week in ASTRONOMY we studied SEASONS in detail. Students learned about the ROTATION the Earth, its REVOLUTION (around the sun) and, most importantly, the EARTH`S TILT which is causing our seasons.


We also studied  the 6th and 7th planets of the solar system, 'Saturne' and 'Uranus'. Students completed their 'Giant Solar System Decoration Project' and we put it up on the wall in our classroom.
