Unit 3 Review

Today we reviewed the concepts that will be on tomorrow's math test. We did this by making videos where we had to really explain our thinking!

Composite vs. Prime numbers

(remember, composite numbers have more than one factor pairs and prime numbers only have one factor pair: 1 and itself)

Factor Rainbows and Factor Pairs
By Reagan and Savannah

Multiplying (using lattice - multiply first, add diagonals
seond)By Nick, Jack, and Jake

Area and Perimeter
area - inside of a figure
A = length x width

perimeter - outside of the figure
P = (length + length) + (width + width)

Literacy Research Project

With the completion of our second literacy unit, Tales of the Heart, kiddos had to put what they learned to work. Everyone completed a totally independent research project. The topic was self-selected (focusing on the human body), research done alone, presentation created, and then shared with the class via Edmodo.

The presentation was done by “app smashing” two different apps: ChatterPix and ThingLink. We had a lot of fun making these and enjoyed seeing one another’s projects.

Here are their final products:
