Math
We continued practicing working on writing numbers in words. Grade 5, you had to find at least three REAL-LIFE numbers; one over 5000; one under 5000; one three-digit number. Think of....
  • seats in a stadium
  • number of endangered animals such as pandas or gorillas
  • distance between two cities
  • age of historical monuments e.g. Great Wall of China, Pyramids
  • cost of gaming console

Grade 4 make sure you have your data (rolls of dice) ready for tomorrow. We will construct stem and leaf plots.

Here are the links for the assignments:
