May 25-31

Date:
May 25-May 31
Introduction:
Hola Grado 4
We hope you had an excellent long weekend!

On Tuesdays & Wednesdays we will have some small group time. You can find your time and group on Google Classroom. Please make sure to come to your Google Meet if you cannot make it please join another group.

On Fridays we will also have our “Café de Español” with Sra Davalos between 11-12 in order to practice oral Spanish.
We will be having a Google Meets this Friday at 2:00 pm with the whole class. 

If the time does not work just email your teacher at their @educbe.ca account. Some of you will have a different time in comparison to last week.

Every week we will have material for you to go through as well as assignments. You will be able to find them all on Google Classroom. Remember that you need to be respectful and follow the digital citizenship expectations!  Please go through the Google Presentation entitled “Grade 4 Weekly Schedule”

You will notice on the “stream” that there is very little you have to go through your classes for the information!

Remember that the work should take approximately 5 hours each week. When you are done with the assignments and you know you have done a good job, you can continue to read on Raz Kids, and do math prodigy for extra practice! 


Math:
This week we will be looking at a new topic.

  1. Review the Slides called “Data & Graphs”. There are some videos, and practice activities for you to do in your Math notebook. You do not need to hand this in. 

2.              When you have finished reviewing the Slides, open the Google Doc called: “Tarea: Data and Graphs”. There are three questions (and one optional bonus) for you to complete in your Math notebook. When you are finished, take a picture, and upload the files to the Classroom and click “Turn in”.  

3.              THINK ABOUT for next week: A topic you would like to gather information about to make your own graphs. This could be a question to ask friends or family members, or a topic you would like to research or collect information for. Some examples could be:
a.              Surveying your family and friends about their favourite ice cream flavour is 
b.              Collecting information about all the socks that there are in your house
c.              Researching information on how many people speak First Nation language in Alberta
