Rocks vs. Minerals, and so much more!

Wow!  Last week was a whirlwind, but we found our feet today!  We published brochures about physical and human features.  We named factors greater than one using improper fractions and mixed numbers.  We defined "rock" and "mineral."  We ended our day examining  our perspective of what it'd be like to be isolated in the Canadian Shield.  MCA testing resumes tomorrow with math :) 



Tonight, ask us how improper fractions and mixed numbers are different, but equal!  Ask us the difference between rocks and minerals!  And, ask us the difference between human features and physical features!
