Power Our World and Integers Intro

Announcements:

  • Report Cards were sent home today
  • No School Tomorrow - Have a great long weekend!!!

Math:

We began learning about Integers (this set of numbers includes positive & negative whole numbers and zero) today. Today we practiced using the elevator model to solve integer problems. Next week we will continue building on the elevator model to include number line models and solving integer addition and subtraction problems using number sentences. 


Science:

Thank you to Gerald and Tyler from Open Streets Calgary for their Powering Our World presentation in today's Science classes. Students learned a great deal about different types of energy (mechanical, thermal, electrical, chemical) and had the opportunity to try generating electricity with bicycles, learned the difference between LED and incandescent lightbulbs, and more. It was a very fun morning!
