What Have We Been Up To in Mr. Joe's Class
English
We have recently passed out our English reading book which looks like this:
Within this book are both fiction and non fiction stories we will read with your student. There are also activities that the students will complete within the class as well as at home.
The students have been very excited about learning about the two different kinds of text in class which are:
FICTION: Text that contains imaginary events, characters that are not real.
NON FICTION: Text that includes information about real people, places, events.
Recently we have been reading the Non Fiction Text: The Journey of the Humpback Whales written by Andy Belcher.. This story is located on page 91 of the Reading Time English text book.
Students are encouraged to work on the activity pages from this story in their text book for Homework. Page: 115-126
Math
In math we are currently learning about subtraction. The students know that they have to make sure then they are subtracting two numbers that the larger number goes on top. The students will say stack, stack, stack!
When we are solving for a problem we must remember the rule:
If the top number is smaller than the bottom number we must borrow from the number to the right. This means we will borrow a ten from the ten from the tens column and give it to the needy number in the ones column. In the example above to the right, you cannot take away 9 from 5, so we will borrow a ten (1) from the 6, and this will now turn into a 5. Now you will subtract.
Here are some pictures of the students at our math centers:

Science
We are currently in the unit of Pollution. You can find this is your Science Student book from page 4-11, in your practical science books pages 6-11, and your homework book Unit 1.
We have been talking about the different pollution we create on our earth as humans such as Air pollution, water pollution, and land pollution. If we are not careful and and use less and reduce, reuse, and recycle our earth will not be as beautiful as it currently is.
