Biomes

Scientific Notation

A number in standard form can be written in scientific notation .
To write a number in scientific notation is so that the first number is one less than ten and to the multiplication of ten.
256 000= 2.56x10 to the power of 5

Bumping

In gym we learnt how to bump. To bump, you should get in a ready position with your knees bent so that when the comes your ready get it. When the comes to you, you should push up with your legs. Don't swing your arms because that's when it goes to the roof and you have no control over the ball. Instead push up with your legs., and hit the ball with your forearms.

GUESS AND CHECK

Guess and check is where you guess a math question and then you check with a calculator or with a pencil and paper and if it's wrong you guess again and you keep doing that until you get it right.

Hatchet

Today in Hatchet we read about when Brian made a fire. And that he had to keep at going and not to let it die. And that he had to find more food before he starves to death. To me Hatchet is a pretty good to read.

Today in class we learned about contractions. Contractions are words formed by joining two other words. For example, did not can be changed to didn't.

Contractions

In grammar we have been learning about contractions. Contractions are really simple. Here's an example, is not can be turned into isn't just drop the I and add an n. Another example is have not can be turned into haven't.

Hatchet

In class we are reading the book hatchet! We just finished chapter 10. Recently Brian has been able to get a fire going. He also found turtle eggs in the sand by the lake and ate 6 raw. I think I would've tried to find a way to cook them instead of eating them raw.

Biotic and Abiotic
Biotic is a living organism such as plants, animals, humans etc.
Abiotic is a non living thing such as a rock, soil, air etc.
Individual, an individual is a single living organism.

Math

In math we are rounding. which is kind of easy if you know what your doing. Say for example if you have 783 and your rounding the hundreds. You look at the number to the right of the 7. If it greater then 5 then you round up if its less than 5 you round down. So the number 783 so it would round to 800.

Biotic and Abiotic

I learned in science that a Biotic is a living organism like a human and plants etc.
Abiotc is a non living thing such as rocks, dirt and metal.

Suffixes

Suffixes are added to the end of a base word and changes the meaning of the word
Example : care + less =careless and means without care

Homographs

  Today I learned that a homograph is a word that has the same spelling as another word but a different meaning and sometimes a different pronunciation.
Example: Duck
Duck other wise you will get hit by that ball.
Look at that duck swimming in the pond over there.

 
     

There is a lot of things that I learned since the new school year started I learned a little bit about math. We're reading a novel that's about a boy named Brian. Brian gets stuck in the middle of the canadian wilderness. I could keep going on and on but im not going to.

Suffixes

Today we learned about suffixes in grammar! When you add a suffix to the end of a base word it changes the meaning
Ex:
      Care - careful - means full of care

Exponents

Today we learned about powers.In 82 the "2"  says to use 8 twice in a multiplication, so 82= 8 x 8  =64  .  In words: 82 could be called "8 to the power 2" or "8 to the second power", or simply "8 squared"
 Powers are also called exponents

Example: 53 = 5x5x5 = 125

Grammar, in grammar (E.L.A) today we learned about prefixes. A prefix is an affix added to the baseword or the "stem" of the word. For an example the word "seen" can be changed into a another word using a prefix by adding the word "un" which mean not so the new word would be "unseen" which means not seen.:)             

Today in class we learned about prefixes! A prefix is added to the start of a base word changing the meaning of the word. For example dis- is a prefix and please is a base word. If you put dis and please together you will get displease. Changing the word please completely.

Rounding

When rounding look to the right if the number is less than 5 round down if it is  over 5 round up.

Rounding

Rounding- If you are rounding 465 and rounding the hundreds spot it would turn into 500, because the number to the right is 6. 6 is bigger than 5, if the number is bigger than 5 you round up, if the number is smaller than 5 you round down.

Hatchet

Are class is reading hatchet. So far it is grate book. This book is about  a boy flying to see his dad and his pilot has a hart attack well there were in the air Brian ( the boy's name) did not know what to do so he ended up crash landing in a lake.  

Line backers

In American foot ball there are 3 line backers Lucy (left out side linebacker) Mack (middle linebacker) and randy (right out side line backer). The outside line backers fill the holes between the defensive tackles and the defensive ends. Mack finders who ever he can find with the ball and tackle them. The outside line backers also have the responsibility of tackling the tight ends,the line backers can also intercept a pass and runs the ball! 

Standard Form

Standard form is when the numbers are like 2 470 if a question asked write in standard form you would write the numbers like 34 816

Today in class we learned about homonyms. Homonyms are words that sound the same but have a different meaning. Such as there, their, and they're.

Problem Solving

Problem solving: Problem solving can be easy when you try. To get the answer you should write it out or draw a picture to help you solve the problem, you are working on.

Problems

3 steps on how to figure out math word problems:
1.Use the given info to find a pattern
2.Use the pattern to solve the problem
3.Check that the answer is reasonable
