Morning work Silent Reading

Homework/Spelling Mark last weeks homework. Students are to glue in their new spelling words and maths homework. Students then complete their daily spelling activities. (8 steps, word features, alphabetical order, dictionary meanings) Collect students homework books to check over before handing them back before home time. Reading Iron Man Plot Graph (SEE BLOG) Session 1 Introduction students reflect back on the novel and discuss their favorite and not so favorite parts. The present the power point. Plot points onto the graph as a class. Activity students create their own plot graph in their books. Then they plot how they though the novel went. Have the first ten students who finish their graph to come up to the board and place their graph on top of what is already on the board. Assess final result as class. Conclusion Have students write down one thing that they can conclude from looking at the class graph. Differentiation- students can copy what is on the board. Extension Have students write a comparison between their graph and the class graph. Session 2 Begin watching Iron Giant DVD. What was your favourite part in Iron Man? Was any part of the story boring? What sort of conclusions could we make looking at the class graph?

Maths Fractions (ACMNA078) Locate fractions on a number line (1 2/3, 5/3, 4 8/5, 2/2, 5/9, 6/4) Introduction - In their groups students will be given number cards. Have them order them into two groups, more than one and less than one. Have students draw the fractions using circles onto the fraction cards. They will sort these cards into order from smallest to biggest. Write this order up on the board. Discuss how students decided what number was the biggest and the smallest. Show a few number lines on the board and have students hold up the correct number card to fill in the gap. Activity - Go through the maths book page. Students are to complete this individually. (p.137) Have a second page for students to complete also. Extension students can go onto task cards. Differentiation students can just complete the first page and then they can gather all the fraction cards together and order them.

How can we work out if 5/6 is bigger than 1/3? Can you have a fraction of 5/4? How would you draw it? How could you tell if a fraction is more or less than one?

RECESS Maths Number lines/ decimals and fractions.

(p.68)(p.83)
Introduction show a number line on the board. Show how number lines can be used with different representations of numbers. Explain these different representations. Complete the number lines on the board as a class. Activity As a class work through page 83 in the maths book have this scanned onto the power point. Check for student understanding. Students compete page 68 in their maths books on their own. Conclusion draw a number line on the board and leave out two numbers. Have students write the missing numbers onto a post it note and stick it on to the sticky note board before leaving. Extension Students can create their own number line leaving out a few numbers and have a friend complete it. Challenge students to see if they can create a complicated number line that the teacher needs to complete. Differentiation Students can come onto the floor and work with the teacher on the small whiteboard. The questions from the book will be talked through together.

What is a number line? Do number lines always start at one? What are other ways I could represent the number one using decimals and fractions? Do the number lines always go up by one? What other number lines could we create?
