Bill Nye: Chemical Changes


We will be watching this Bill Nye after we finish and get started the chemical changes in the Potato Lab.

Multiplying fractions


I know you guys have mastered this, your grades on the practice and the quiz have proven that, but it is still here for reference anytime you need it.

Tomorrow at a glance

Class,

Tomorrow, we will be looking at dividing decimals and fractions. You guys have mastered how to find the reciprocal of a fraction along with how to multiply fractions, so this concept will be a snap for you guys.

In science, we will be having our potato lab in class. We will be blowing up balloons with nothing but some hydrogen peroxide and a potato slice.  You guys will see a chemical change take place in person, so make sure to have your chemical changes notes when you come into class tomorrow. This will be a fun lab, and we will be having more labs next week involving chemical reactions and chemical changes. This is turning out to be a really fun year y'all!!

See you all tomorrow.

Don't forget to bring in your field trip permission slip tomorrow for Friday!

Dividing Decimals


This will be another concept we will be covering tomorrow along with dividing fractions. It involves long division, only it has decimals in it. It is not too difficult if you take great notes and pay attention in class.

Dividing Fractions


We will be watching this video tomorrow, since we will be exploring this concept in fraction operations.
