Blogging 'bout Math!



Last week, I asked you to get ready to blog about math! Starting this week, we will be engaging in interactive Math lessons using online videos and links. We have started our new unit on Patterning and Algebra and i am excited for you to use MathLive as a tool for learning both in class, and at home!
***INSTRUCTIONS: Click the link provided above. Then click Lessons and select the Patterns activity. Now, click play and enjoy your virtual learning experience!  Once you have completed the activity, I would like you to post a comment below. In your comment, you must answer the following questions:

  1. Did you enjoy the Patterns activity from the MathLive website? Why or why not.
  2. Create your own growing or shrinking number pattern that you would like your classmates to solve. (These patterns will be used for our next lesson!)

      Message to Parents and/or guardians:
      The link provided above provides students with a series of interactive activities to help develop and apply reasoning skills to explain/describe relationships related to numeric patterns. This activity covers the expectations of the Grade 4 Patterning and Algebra Strand from the Ministry of Ontario Mathematics curriculum document. Strand expectations are posted in the Curriculum Documents Page.With this link, Students will be given the opportunity practice and learn topics within the patterning and algebra unit at home.
