We have been working on our latest project - KITES! Students researched the history of kites and how they work, then designed a kite which had to include at least 2 right triangles. Students had to prove using Pythagorean theorem that they were indeed right triangles. Then they could move forward and build their kites. Today we will be testing out our kites outside! :)

Apologies as I missed a few of my daily updates last week.
From Tuesday-Thursday last week we worked towards finishing all of the triangle worksheets we have been doing. Including Pythagorean theorem and an introduction to SIN COS TAN. It was important to have these completed as report cards are coming soon. Friday was a holiday. Today we started some more triangle work. We have been doing Pythagorean theorem and have just started Sin, Cos and Tan relationships.
We are working towards our kite project! Today was our AUCTION!! We bid on items using our financial project money!
Then we enjoyed puzzles and games day :) Today we finished the triangles booklets and talked about our Auction that is happening TOMORROW! :)
We continued triangles today and heard about the Trades Sampler program!
Today we continued our triangles booklets.
We hope to finish these this week so that we can move on to the fun kite building triangle project! 1) Pay Day in our financial books - Auction on Friday!
2) Quiz on graphing 3) Started Triangles! Leading us into our kite building and designing project soon! |
