THINK MATH ~ 22

Posted on June 10, 2015 by Ms. Watt | Leave a comment

Thank you to all the students who created questions to our Think Math answer last week:
The answer is the sum of 8 Sports Day stations.
There were 6 stations & then Miss Watt & Mr. Phillips made 1 each but 1 of the stations didn’t have the right pieces then Miss Watt helped Mr. Phillips with his cookie game. How many in all? ~ Kristina
There were 6 Sports Day stations. Miss Watt said, “That’s not enough stations! We need a running station.” So then they got a running station. Then Miss Watt said, “Let’s add another station. How about a skipping station?” How many Sports Day stations in all? ~ Ira
On Tuesday they set up 3 stations. On Wednesday they set up 5. How many stations set up? ~ Emily
There were 3 Sports Day stations ready & 5 were late to be set up. How many in all? ~ Cole
There were 5 Sports Day stations so the teachers thought they should have 3 more. How many all together? ~ Benjamin

Here’s this week’s answer! Good Luck Grade 3s! Remember there are as many different correct answers as there are students in our class! I can’t wait to share the answers this Friday!

K is for KERNELS & L is for LETTERS

K ~ KERNELS of popcorn
We popped some popcorn in a couple old fashioned hot air popcorn poppers, including the one that Miss Watt used as a Grade 3 student! It was so cool to see it close up instead of waiting outside a microwave!

L ~ We wrote LETTERS to next year’s class, giving them the low down on what it means to be in Miss Watt’s class. Miss Watt will be sharing them all with her new students in September!…or maybe just the ones that were kind… 😉

J is for JUMPY SCIENCE

Poppin_Rockets_0128 J ~ JUMPY Poppin Rockets! Science with baking soda & vinegar!
We created a chemical reaction in a film canister! The vinegar reacts with the baking soda and produces carbon dioxide gas. Pressure builds up until the small canister can no longer contain the gas. The lid pops off, the canister shoots up into the air, the gas escapes, and the pressure is released.
CLICK HERE & HERE to see videos of our rockets in action!!
