Lesson 1: Study of Mattter

Hi Division 5,

Read the entire post before starting the lesson!

This week, we will be using sources from Scholastic.ca digital resources.

I’d like you to click on the link below. There will be a few steps to go through in order to access the video and article.

Then go through these steps:

When you are at the article, there are some settings you can use to help with understanding the information.

Turn Read Aloud On – this makes your device read the article if you want to listen and read along
Look Up a Word – this brings you to a different screen and you can type a word to search the meaning of a word
Change my Reading Level 1 2 3 – there are three different reading levels. You can change the reading level and the text will change slightly to help you understand the content better.

Great! You’ve finished watching the video and reading the article. What next?

Write and/or draw about you learned and post your work on your BlogFolio.
You can use paper, pencil and other writing tools to show your work. Or, you can create a post and type your work.

Ready to post?
