Yummy Apple Crisp

We devoured our tasty treat today!

Autumnal Changes

I hope everyone is enjoying the delights of autumn - gorgeous fall weather, pumpkin spice lattes, juicy apples and the carving of pumpkins. We are enjoying a look at how the world changes along with the season - shorter days, crisper air, and bare trees.

As part of our Growth and Changes unit, we observed and sampled different types of apples: Granny Smith, Red Delicious, Pink Lady, Royal Gala, Golden Delicious, and Spartan. After tasting each type of apple, students described the apple (round or tall; red, yellow, or green), the colour of its flesh (white or creamy), the consistency of its peel (thick or thin), the taste (sweet or slightly tart), and its texture (tender or crisp).

The apples were peeled and then we made apple crisp. We cannot wait to devour the tasty treat tomorrow!

Statistics and Probability

During the last two weeks, the students have been studying statistics and probability. We  collected, organized, and represented first-hand data using tally marks, charts, lists, bar graphs, and line plots (abstract pictographs). We surveyed other classes, played games of chance, and represented the results. To culminate our study, the students brought in a box of multi-coloured candy. We graphed the colours, determined the probability of choosing a colour, created designs with lines of symmetry, and then ate our results!
