We've continued with some review activities in math this week. The new unit begins Monday. There is a spelling quiz tomorrow. Please practice the words listed below on the blog. The students are continuing with their writing from earlier in the week. In science, we discussed more in-depth about volume/amplitude/decibels and pitch/frequency/hertz. We used an app called 'Decibel Meter' that you can find in the app store and visited this website to hear different tones of frequency. It was fun to make noise and see just how 'loud' we were and to find out different facts about how high and low humans can hear. The students are learning so much about sound and they are really enjoying it!
