**A MUSIC form is coming home with Lyrics for the upcoming May 2nd Music MondayAssembly. Please practice at home so I can MASTER my lyrics.
We are reading Charlotte's Web and writing a letter to Mr. Zuckerman using Persuasive Writing with an "OREO" visual organizer!
Persuasive writing is a form of writing in which the writer uses words to convince the reader that the writer's opinion is correct in regard to an issue!
Science
We have been exploring Magnets. We investigated whether we could make a car move using magnets and if so, why or why not? We explored the following concepts USING our knowledge of the Scientific Method including; (identifying a Problem, forming a Hypothesis or Prediction, conducting an Experiment, making Observations and finding a Conclusion):

ATTRACTION
REPULSION
MAGNETIC FIELD
MAGNETIC FORCE
MAGNETIC FIELD
MAGNETIC FORCE
MAGNETIC POLES
We also reviewed which metals are magnetic:
We came up with a hypothesis about how to make our cars move forward and why some cars moved faster then others. Ask me what I had to do to make my car PUSH forward and what happened when I turned my magnet the other way.
Magnets won't move until they enter the magnetic field.
Social Studies
We continue to learn about the people, jobs, languages, customs, landmarks and land in Peggy's Cove and Meteghan, Nova Scotia. The following FUN songs help us to remember the Provinces and Capitals of CANADA :)
Stompin' Tom... the Capitals Song
C-A-N-A-D-A
Canada in My Pocket!
This Land is Your Land (Canada!)
MATH
Here are some excellent concept math sheets by JUMP Math(tm) we will be working on.
These really assist your child in moving through place-value and regrouping ideas. If you have any extra time to review these at home, it would be beneficial.
