This week we will not have much homework. Everyone needs to read two books on Raz-Kids. There's a spelling quiz to be ready for on Friday. Grade 3 words are: then, myself, probably, especially, usually, about, what, except, new, knew, know, no. Grade 4 Nifty Thrifty Words: continuous, valuable, nonliving, conversation, forgotten, swimming, unpleasant.
In PBL we are creating inventions. Here's the student instructions.
In your PBL groups you must think of a problem that needs to be solved. Then, you will design an invention that will do the work needed. This invention will need to use at least 3 simple machines. Then you will make a model of your invention out of household items like popsicle sticks, glue, fasteners, etc. Finally you will present your invention to the class.
On Thursday we will begin building the model of our invention. These will be made in class using materials that the students can build with themselves.
