Welcome to Mr. Baker's Math and Science Home Page
The students worked to gain a further understanding of the Scientific Method. We learned each step:
The experiment they did was to see if only 5 minutes of math practice would increase their score on a multiplication test. They ran a base line test with no practice and then the following day they did a 5 minute warm up focused around multiplying by 2, 5, 10 and 3. They then needed to complete a similar quiz to see if they improved in three areas: 1. Time to complete 2. Questions completed 3. Questions correct As part of their conclusion and sharing they need to talk to you about the importance of this experiment and how it could impact their homework programming. Ask such prompting questions as:
In science we will now be moving to the Unit of Lights and Shadows. Gain some knowledge using these resources: https://www.ducksters.com/science/sight_and_the_eye.php https://kidshealth.org/en/kids/eyes.html https://www.natgeokids.com/uk/discover/science/general-science/human-eye/ In math students are searching for missing values and applying these skills into word problems. Students worked towards completing an independent word problem. The problem was:
Students can work on the following questions to practice their missing values. ?+4=10 ?+9=21 ?+17=31 ?+67=91 101+?=145 67+?=200 93+?=300 90-?=10 95-?=17 ?-65=100 ?-31=144
