Today we adopted this tree in front of our school! We studied it and drew diagrams in our nature journals. We had a lot of great questions about why the tree was changing. We will continue to study this tree as the seasons change! ๐Ÿ‚๐Ÿ@StLukeOttawa @MissMarascoOCSB #ocsbOutdoors

Super successful morning with @dduff77 (AKA Math Man) exploring division and fractions with cuisinaire rods! So much great thinking from the students. They said, โ€œAll this math on the board makes it look like weโ€™re in college!โ€ @StLukeOttawa @kimstiffOCSB #ocsbMath

Today, students created spheres with partners! They used the pan balance to determine whether they had the same mass, then explored fractions by testing whether 1/2 of the sphere would have the same mass as 2/4 of the sphere! @StLukeOttawa #ocsbmath
