Day 3!

Hello SJA Parents,

Quote of the day:
Math:
Today we learned about Capacity and we looked at how capacity can be measured.

Capacity- the total amount that can be contained. It is measured in millimetres and litres.

We know that...
1000 millilitres = 1 litres 

What are some examples of containers? 
- cups
-bottles
- yogurt container
- bins and buckets

Exercise: 
Container A: 1.25L 
Container B: 2.75L
Container C: 0.78L

Which container holds the greatest amount? We answered Container B.
Which container holds the least amount? We answered Container C. 

UOI:
The students began working on their Science Fair project and were given three choices for their science experiment. They picked out one out of the three choices which they will be conducting as an experiment for their summative. 

The experiments pertained to:
Catching Rainbows
Reflecting Sound
Exploring Pitch 

We then learned about Transparent, Translucent and Opaque colours. 
Translucent- materials that let some light through 
Opaque- materials that block all light from getting through
Transparent- materials that let light shine through

The students came up with their own thoughts and ideas on What would life be like without electricity?
Agenda:
