Key Concepts in Math



In math, we have been using the key concepts to develop our understanding of mathematical concepts. The Grade 5 learners inquired into "factoring" while the Grade 6 learners investigated "rounding". One goal we are working on as a class is to share the air time!




In the video above, you can see the Grade 6's discussing the function of rounding.

As we had our conversation, we used sentence starters to help us build on each others' ideas to be effective communicators. This is a skill that we have been practicing during our book clubs as a part of reading workshop!




Below is an example of the ideas that we came up with from our discussion. 




This poster below is a representation of what the Grade 5 learners thought they knew when they started to learn about factoring. We will go back to this poster next week and show in a different color how our thinking and knowledge changes!
