Biography, Swim info.

Read about the person you chose.
Students chose a book about a person at the Library Today.
Except the boys that were at Football.

Start to read the book, jot down notes in preparation to write a three paragraph biography.
Some brainstorming we did today for possible paragraph topics are shown below.



We will be discussing things further as we progress in our reading.
Also in your reading, or research in class find one quote from the person that was meaningful for you.

NOTE: Next week due to Halloween (Parade) we will be missing or normal swim time.
             I have been able to reschedule that swim time to Thursday, November 2, 2017.

Also if you haven't done so please return Wonder Movie Trip Forms.

Thanks

Math Problems /Reminders


Complete these problem in your math notebooks.
Due Tomorrow (October 24, 2017)


11.     Paige's school is trying to raise $2000 for UNICEF.  They ran a car wash over two   weekends. They charged $3.00 to wash a car. In four days, they washed 87, 104, 77   and 124 cars. How much more money do they need to raise to reach their goal of   $2000? How many more cars will they need to wash? 
    Show your work/thinking.



2.    A bird collector wants to buy 100 budgies and wants to spend as close to       $100 as possible.  Blue budgies cost $10 each, green budgies cost $3,           and yellow budgies cost 50 cents each.  The collector wants to purchase       at least one budgie of each colour.  How many blue, green and yellow           budgies could he buy?

The key to solving math problems is to identify what the question is asking and use the proper computation to find the answer.
Some times multiple computations are needed to solve parts of the problem.

Today's Language/Science


Science - The Digestive System
Today students completed the diagram below. Some have completed the work in class, some will continue it at school next week.






Language -
Students are completing a descriptive writing task.
Writing a description using adjectives and adverbs, about an insect they have created.
This morning we went through some editing using google docs. If you are interested students can access their google docs from a home computer.
The final step is to see this description come to life by building a 3D model of their insect.
Building can start anytime even over the long weekend if the student wants to get a head start. We will be starting the building process next week.

Article - Read , Question for tomorrow's Journal



Re - read the article.

Reflect on the comment made by Puerto Rican mayor, Cameron Yulin Cruz,

"I ask not only for Puerto Rico, but for the entire Caribbean: Do not forget us and do not let
us feel alone."

Some questions to think about.
Why did he say this?
What does it mean to you?
What is the importance of this statement for the whole world?
