-determine and explain the relationships among fractions, decimal numbers, and percents
-represent relationships using unit rates
-represent ratios found in real-life contexts
-determine and explain the relationships among fractions, decimal numbers, and percents
-represent relationships using unit rates
GEOMETRIC PROPERTIES
- sort and classify quadrilaterals by geometric properties related to symmetry, angles, and sides
- sort polygons according to the number of lines of symmetry and the order of rotational symmetry
- measure and construct angles up to 180 degrees using a protractor, and classify them as acute, obtuse, right, or straight angles
- construct polygons using a variety of tools, given angles and size measurement
- build three dimensional models using connecting cubes, isometric sketches or different views of the structure
- sketch, using a variety of tools isometric perspectives and different views of 3-D figures built with interlocking cubes
- explain how a coordinate system represents location, and plot points in the first quadrant of the Cartesian Plane
- identify, perform, and describe, (the investigation using a variety of tools) rotations of 180 degrees clockwise and counter clockwise rotation of 90 degrees, with the center of rotation inside or outside the shape
- create and analyse designs made by reflecting, translating, and/or rotating a shape/shapes by 90 degrees or 180 degrees
SUMMARY
Washed up on an island in the pacific with his dog Stella, Michael struggles to survive on his own. He can't find food. He can't find water. But just when things are at their worst, Michael realizes that he and Stella are not alone.
His fellow castaway, Kensuke, has lived on the island since the bombing of his native Nagasaki. Kensuke keeps his distance at first, but slowly, he lets the boy into his world. The two teach and learn from each other until inevitably, they must talk about escape.

Measurement
- solve problems requiring conversion from larger terms to smaller metric units
- determine the relationship between the area of a rectangles, triangles, and parallelograms
- solve problems involving the estimation and calculation of the areas of triangles and parallelograms

Math Unit - Data Management
Key Elements: surveys, experiments, discrete or continuous primary and secondary data, continuous line graph, an ability to select and justify a type of graph to display specific data, interpret and draw conclusions from primary and secondary data, scales, mean, median, and mode
Number Sense and Numeration
Current Focus:
Comparing and Order Whole and Decimal Numbers
Multiplying and Dividing Whole and Decimal Numbers
Prime and Composite Numbers
Factors & Multiples (prime factors)
Greatest Common Factor Lowest Common Multiples Students will also review number sense concepts such as: place value, expressing numbers, and addition and subtraction of whole and decimal numbers.
Social Studies:Canada’s Interactions with the Global Community
Application: Canada and International Cooperation
- explain why Canada participates in specific international accords and organizations
- explain why some environmental issues are of international importance and require the participation of other
regions of the world, along with Canada, if they are to be effectively addressed
Inquiry: Response to Global Issues
- gather and organize information on global issues of political, social, economic, and/or environmental importance,
including their impact and response to them, using a variety of resources and various technologies
- evaluate evidence and draw conclusions about global issues of political, social, economic, and/or environmental
importance, their impact on the global community, and responses to the issues
Understanding Context: Canada’s Global Interactions
- identify and locate on a map countries and regions with which Canada has a significant interrelationship, and use
longitude and latitude to locate cities in these countries
- describe several groups or organizations through which Canada and Canadians are involved in global issues
SCIENCE:
Unit #1: Understanding Life Systems - BIODIVERSITY
These are some of the unit's learning expectations.
Relating Science and Technology to Society and the Environment
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).
