Math
Test tomorrow on length and distance. Use booklet, Skills Bank and Chapter Review in your textbook as a review. Go through past posts. There will be no perimeter questions on the test.
Tomorrow we will be determining elapsed time to nearest second. Try these:

We spend lots of time viewing prepared slides under the microscope. Did the different kinds of cells and tissue look like you expected?
How was the plant cell (onion skin) different than your cheek epithelia cell? What does an onion cell have that a human cell does not?
Which is which cell?
Literacy
I'm so impressed with some of the dialogue you are writing. Today you stepped it up a notch by writing an actual conversation between two characters. Tomorrow you will be adding a bit of narrative or background information to help the reader understand the setting or situation.
You'll need your imagination hat for tomorrow. If they could speak what do you think they would say?
A fish and a worm dangling at the end of a hook.....
Scissors and hair about to be cut....
A beard and a razor....
Feet and pair of running shoes...
Wind and a kite...
Feet and a carpet....
Dirty hands and a bar of soap...
Hockey stick and a puck....

Today Ms. Di Caterina introduced elapsed time. There are several strategies you can use to find elapsed time. You can use a clock and count up, you can use subtraction (a little tricky) or you can add up using a number line. We focused on the use of a number line.

Examples:
Math test on measuring lengths is on Thursday (tomorrow for the hockey players).
You must know how to:
- Measure to the nearest cm and mm
- Change from one unit to another unit
- Express lengths using more than one unit
- Choose the most appropriate unit for measuring a distance, length or height
- Solve problems using diagrams
- Solve distance / time problems using a t-chart

Today we learned two more multiplication strategies. For the first, you use a known multiplication fact to get the fact above or below. For example:
If you know 7 x 7 = 49 then 7 x 8 = 49 + 7 = 56
In the first fact you have 7 groups of 7, in the second you have 8 groups of 7 so you just add one more group of 7.
The second strategy is the half / double strategy.
If you have 18 x 4 the product is the same as 9 x 8 = 72
9 is half of 18 and 8 is double 4
Try these:
24 x 6
22 x 6
16 x 4

Today we went through some challenging word problems that involved drawing a picture to answer the question. It's important that you draw a picture to keep track of the distances traveled. For example:
Mickey lives 45 km of east of Minnie. Donald lives 25 km west of Minnie. If Mickey drove to Minnie's house, drove back home, then to Donald's house and back to Minnie's house, how far did he travel?
His trip can be organized into 4 parts.

Please review March Break post on writing an inquiry question for your Heritage Project. Think about the material you would research to answer your question. You do not type in the question to find the answer. You have to figure out what to research to answer your question. For example, if you chose the importance of a natural resource in a region, you might research:
- General facts about the natural resource
- Jobs the resource provides
- Products of the natural resource
- Importance of the natural resource to Canadians
- Effect on the environment
Reference for your industries in the Great Lakes St. Lawrence Lowlands:

Social Studies
When we return to school, we will be working on our Heritage Fair Projects. Your topic must be related to what we have studied in Social Studies, Canada's Physical and Political Regions. Your project must start with a inquiry based question.
Examples of question format:
What is the importance of ...... (natural resource in Canada) to Canada?
How is the (physical region) important to the people of (political region)?
Is (natural resource) Canada's most valuable natural resource?
How is (industry) important to the people of (political region)?
Is (natural feature) Canada's greatest tourist attraction?
How does Canada's climate influence....?
Sample questions:
Is water Canada's most valuable natural resource?
How is farming important to the people of Southwestern Ontario?
Why is the Cordillera important to the people of British Columbia?
How is the fishing industry important to the people in Atlantic Canada?
How does the mining / forestry industry help the people of Northern Ontario?
How has ecotourism helped the Hudson Bay Lowlands?
How can we be good stewards of creation in the Canadian Shield?
In what ways can cities grow in Southern Ontario that respect all of God's gifts?
Is Niagara Falls Canada's greatest tourist attraction?
How does Canada's climate influence the sports we play?
Think about a question. IT DOES NOT HAVE TO BE ONE OF THE ABOVE QUESTIONS. No two students may have the same question. If you already have a question in mind, write it on the piece of paper and submit it to me on Monday. Because we are a little late starting this, you will be gathering your information at home and bringing it to school starting next week. We will work together to write an outline for your project. Each question is unique, so everyone's outline will be different, but there will be similarities. The writing portion of your project will probably be 1 - 2 pages typed.

Get a jump on the next skill in multiplication. Just like addition, we can decompose a number and multiply by each part then add products. For example:
If we multiply 45 x 7, we can decompose 45 into 40 + 5, multiply 40 x 7 then multiply 5 x 7, then add each product. 45 x 7 = 40 x 7 (280) + 5 x 7 ( 35) = 280 + 35 = 315
Try these:

What is the perimeter? Watch the video to review:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AAY1bsazcgM&t=325s
What is the relationship between the length and wide of a rectangle and perimeter?
You can find the perimeter of a rectangle a few different ways.
1. Add the length and the width, then multiply your answer by 2 or double it.
20 m + 25 m = 45 m 45 m x 2 = 90 m
2. Double the length, double the width, then add.
20m + 20 m = 40 m 25 m = 25 m = 50 m 40 m + 50 m = 90 m
3. Add the length of each side.
20 m + 20 m + 25 m + 25 m = 90 m
Whatever strategy you choose, the answer will always be the same. Perimeter is a linear measurement so the units are units of length such as mm, cm, dm, m, km.
Real life applications of perimeter include: trim, baseboards, frames and fences.
Social Studies
Today we talked about the people and natural resources in the Great Lakes-St Lawrence Lowlands. One natural resource is water. Do you remember how ships travel from Lake Erie to Lake Ontario? What is the problem? Use the diagrams to explain to a parent how locks work.
Soil is an important natural resource in our region. What is happening to a lot of our farmland? What is urban sprawl?
Farming is a career that sometimes spans generations. What other careers are like that? Why do you think that is?
For tomorrow, think about the benefits and challenges of running a family farm.

Spelling
Rules that we know so far for plurals:
Most words just add s
Words ending in x, ch, sh, s and z add es
Words ending in consonant + y, change the y to i and add es
Words ending in vowel + y just add s
Words ending in f or fe, change the f or fe to v and add es
Words ending in consonant + o usually add es
Words ending in a vowel + o add s
There are many exceptions to the rules. You need to learn them!
Adding suffixes:
If a word ends in consonant + vowel + consonant double the final consonant before adding ed or ing
If a word ends in a silent e, drop the e before adding ed or ing
If a word ends in a silent e, do NOT drop the e before adding a suffix that starts with a consonant e.g. less or ful
