Here is what's happening in Gr. 5!
Math
Proportional Relationships
-describe relationships between simple fractions and decimals
-determine and explain he relationship between fractions and their equivalent decimal forms
-demonstrate an understanding of simple whole-number rates

LANGUAGE:
DAILY 5
This month we will be preparing for our Daily 5 language rotations. The Daily 5 activities include: Working with Words (building vocabulary), Guided Reading (teacher working with small ability based groups), Writing, Visualization/Listening Centre (listening to oral texts and demonstrating understanding), Read to Self (independent reading).
MATHEMATICS:
Geometry and Spatial Sense (February)
Angles
Movement
Data Management (October)Key Elements: discrete and continuous data, data collection (surveys and experiments), understanding of data sets, interpret and draw conclusions from primary and secondary data, charts,stem-and-leaf plot, tables, broken-line graphs, mean, median, and mode
Number Sense and Numeration (September)
UNIT #1 PLACE VALUE
- represent, compare, and order whole numbers and decimal numbers from 1.01 to 100,000, using a variety of
tools
- demonstrate an understanding of place value in whole numbers and decimal numbers from 0.01 to 100,000,
using a variety of tools and strategies
- read and print in words whole numbers to ten thousands, using meaningful contexts
- round decimal numbers to the nearest tenth
Social Studies:PEOPLE AND ENVIRONMENTS: THE ROLE OF GOVERNMENT AND RESPONSIBLE CITIZENSHIP
Application: Governments and Citizens Working Together
- assess effectiveness of actions taken by one or more levels of government to address an issue of national,
provincial/territorial, and/or local significance
- create a plan of action to address an environmental issue of local, provincial, and/or national significance
Inquiry: Differing Perspectives on Social and Environmental Issues
- formulate questions to guide investigations into social and/or environmental issues in Canada from various
perspectives
- analyze and construct maps in various formats
Understanding Contexts: Roles and Responsibilities of Government and Citizens
- describe the major rights and responsibilities associated with citizenship in Canada
- describe the jurisdiction of different levels of government in Canada
- explain why different groups may have different perspectives on specific social and environmental issues
SCIENCE:
CONSERVATION OF ENERGY AND RESOURCES
Relating Science and Technology to society and the Environment
-analyze the long-term impacts on society and the environment of human resources, and suggest ways to reduce these impacts
Developing Investigation and Communication Skills
-use technological problem solving skills to design, build, and test a device that transforms one form of energy into another
Understanding Basic Concepts
- identify a variety of forms of energy
- identify renewable and non-renewable sources of energy
- recognize that energy can not be created or destroyed but can only be changed from one form to another
UNDERSTANDING LIFE SYSTEMS: HUMAN ORGAN SYSTEMS
These are some of this unit's learning expectations.
- use appropriate science and technology vocabulary in oral and written communication
- assess the effects of social and environmental factors on human health, and propose ways in which individuals
can reduce the harmful effects of these factors and take advantage of those that are beneficial
- identify the major systems in the human body
- describe the basic structure and function of major organs in the respiratory circulatory, and digestive systems
