Mrs. Fischer's NewsGrade 4 Math
Welcome! I am so happy to be your Math teacher this year. Our first module in math will solidify our understanding of large numbers in a place value chart. With that understanding we will multiply and divide by 10, and add and subtract large numbers. We will practice rounding large numbers to the nearest hundred, thousand and ten-thousand. Lastly, we will apply what we know to solve word problems. We always make time for math songs and games. Grade 4 Science Welcome! We begin 4th grade science with the unit “Earth’s Process in NYS”. Students will create models of rock formations and fossils in rock layers. They will also find evidence of weathering and erosion in NYS. Students will provide evidence to prove whether or not a volcano eruption is possible in NYS. Lastly they will study the impacts of natural Earth’s processes on humans and develop solutions to help in the case of natural disasters. Grade 5 Science Welcome back! The first trimester unit in 5th grade is called “Deer Deer Everywhere”. As they study ecosystems they will collect information to find the cause of the overpopulation of deer and its effects. They will discover the interactions of the different components of a deer ecosystem. We will go on a macroinvertebrate hunt and create a living mini ecosystem called an “ecocolumn”. Lastly, the students will find solutions to the overpopulation of deer in our ecosystems. Grade 6 Science Welcome back! Our last year of science together starts with examining two different Kelp Forests. Students will soon learn that Kelp grow in water and are not plants! They will conduct several experiments to determine what is needed for this ecosystem to thrive. We will be using a new science platform called Discovery Education Techbook. |
