Grade 5s will continue to learn about Newton's 1st Law: the Law of Inertia. Students will receive their Weather Nine Weeks Test on Monday and we will go over commonly missed questions. Students will test how aerodynamic their paper airplanes are in a competition and we will use the example of airplanes to lead into inertia. We will prepare a concept map on inertia and examine as many aspects of it as possible. By playing Simon Says with Newton's Laws vocabulary words, we will review inertia concepts. Finally, students will create a display to show a sentence and picture of each: inertia, force, friction, and velocity.
Homework for the week:
Monday: Competitive Edge pgs. 220-221 #13 to 18
Tuesday: Bring in pictures to show inertia, force, friction, and velocity for Thursday
Wednesday: pg. 228-229 #1-8 (I might modify the amount of questions depending on the understanding of students)
Thursday: Sentences and pictures of inertia, velocity, friction, force for good copy paper
Friday: students should have enough time to finish their Inertia assignment in class, but if they are not finished Friday in class, they will need to finish it at home over the weekend
