We have begun our math unit on Sorting and Patterning. We have been exploring patterns with pictures and will now look into more number patterns. The following are great links for students to explore patterning, and are all topics we have covered in class:

Math vocabulary includes:
- Attributes: describes and object (i.e. round, blue).
- Pattern Core: the part of the pattern that repeats.
Our Sorting and Patterning MATH TEST will be on Thursday September 23rd.
For science, we have just started our unit on Matter by exploring Liquids and Solids. Students can explore the following link to learn more about what happens to liquids and solids when exposed to different temperatures:
