Math Project Assessment – Avery

This week grade 4/5 has done a project assessment in math on adding and subtracting fractions. A project assessment is testing your knowledge in real life use. The one we did this week was where we had two cupcake recipes we had to write the ingredients and the amounts in the table and we had to add each ingredient. We had another   paper were it said what was in the pantry. Then we had to subtract the amount in the pantry and write the answer, ingredients and amounts on a paper we called the shopping list. I think the most challenging part was converting teaspoons into tablespoons or cups into pounds and ounces. The recipes made me so hungry! They looked really good! I had lots of fun with the project assessment. Have you ever done any project assessments?

 

Culture in Social Studies – Amat

In social studies we have been learning about culture and what is in culture and the traditions, family, religion, the six elements of culture. We did a presentation and wrote some question about culture, like what is culture, what is culture for, and why does culture need to be a society of people, and we did positives and negatives about cultural diversity.

Narrative Writing – Mouza

I chose this piece of work because I worked hard on it and I am proud of this piece of work because this is my favorite piece of writing and my goal is to put Adverbs and Adjectives in my story next time. I had to write a story about a captain on his ship staring at the sea but there was a wave coming to the ship so I wrote what’s going to happen next.
