Home Learning Week 3

Posted: April 20, 2020

Hi Everyone,

   I hope you are all doing well and hopefully you are taking advantage of some of the nice weather we have been having to get outside.

Math - Your options for math this week are as follows.  The hi-tech option is Dreambox math.  The website is https://play.dreambox.com/login/knjs/aaj2.  If you have not emailed me for your username and password yet, please do so.  You can send the email to gerry.richard@nbed.nb.ca .  A low tech option would be math-drills.com.  The focus for this week should be on multi-digit multiplication (examples - 23 x 6, 34 x 23, 432 x 54).  Alternatively, you could use dice to work on your math facts.  Roll the dice and multiply the numbers that come up.  If you happen to have any 12 sided or 20 sided dice in a board game at home, use those so you can get more challenging questions.

This weeks problem of the week and the answers to last week are attached to this post.

Science - This weeks science is all about wind and wind power.  The challenge is to build an anemometer to measure wind speed and direction.  You can find more information at http://stemnorth.nbed.nb.ca/sites/stemnorth.nbed.nb.ca/files/doc//y2020/Apr/asdn_weekly_steam_issue_3.pdf

Have a great week and feel free to email me if you need anything.

Mr. Richard
