Friday November 15th, 2019

Here is what we did today:

Music: Please see Ms. McMillian's blog for more detail.

Inquiry into Math: Today we talk about equations! Equations are number sentences that show how two things are equal. I wrote a few different versions of equations on the board and we discussed why those would considered equations.




We worked on solving addition equations that have missing numbers. We used the strategy that you find the sum of one side of the equal sign and then you take that sum and subtract the number from the opposite side of the equal sign to find that missing number.

Then we went over ways to solve missing terms in subtraction equations. If the first term is missing, to solve it you need to add the difference and the second term together. This will give you the first term (the biggest number). 



If you are missing the second term, to solve it you need to subtract the first term and difference to get the second term.



We will continue this on Monday! 


Recess/Lunch

UOI: Today we worked on what it means to be resilient and what are coping strategies. We discussed what they thought it meant to be resilient. We spoke about the saying "falling off the horse and getting back up." We talked about moments they were resilient and how they overcame those situations.
Here are 2 videos we watched that helped us better understand the term resilience: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKpBJjsZ7EE&list=PLcdK5SbVPtlatY-1Apa6iQSprgH7rLGe_&index=6

We then discussed what are coping strategies and the difference between healthy and unhealthy coping strategies. We did some table group activities to help us sort between healthy and unhealthy coping strategies. We also watched two videos about coping with stress and different coping strategies.
