A busy Wednesday!

Happy Wednesday everyone!

We started our day in Math with our first Calcul Mental evaluation. 
Our first strategy was a multiplication strategy where we "Cut and Pasted" the extra zeros.
Ex: 3000 x 5, becomes 3 x 5 when we cut the zeros.
We then multiply 3 x 5 = 15, and then paste the zeros, to get 15 000!

After getting our brain warmed up with mental math, we moved on to our PPCM evaluation.
Most of us still need more time to work, so we'll use part of tomorrow's Math class 
to review and complete our work.


We were busy in Science today, too!
We each got a spoonful of dried beans and used them to create a classification key (clé dichotomique). We needed to focus on writing specific questions in order to organize our beans into subgroups. We will finish reviewing our work and answering questions about our keys tomorrow.
