We are currently tying up our science unit on Hot and Cold Temperatures and today we have been applying design thinking skills to creating a heating or cooling device. Students spent time individually ideating good materials and coming up with different plans. They then joined groups with a similar interest to come up with more ideas and start to finalize a plan. Today they gathered materials and started to draw their plans. Next week, we will begin building these and testing the devices.
In math, we created some repeating patterns, labelled them, and identified the core of the pattern. We used a variety of materials from the class to create some interesting and challenging patterns. Next, we will be applying our problem solving skills by using these patterns. Here are a few that we created:
We continue to work on our Little Bird Tales and are VERY close to finishing. Once we have these done, we will let you know so you can watch them at home.
Have a great weekend!
