This week , in Science, we've been learning about energy.This week in particular we've been learning about sound. Did you know that your ears are like funnels? Our ears take the sound and use nerves to send the information to the brain. Then the brain will know or recognize what the sound is-like your best friend talking to you-like that. This happens so fast, yet so much happens in a lot less than a second! It also involves air molecules, but that's a different story.
This week in reading we read a book called "The Invention of Hugo Cabret," which you might know as the new movie "Hugo".The genre is Historical Fiction. Hugo lives alone.Why, you ask?Because all of his family members had died. Before you watch the movie read the book. I'm sure you'll like the book better.
This week in math we had our Chapter 3 test. We learned about prime numbers, (which have only 2 factors, 1 and itself) and square numbers, like 4. 2x2=4, and obviously the factors are the same. We also learned about Factor Trees. They start with a number and then you split the factors until they are all prime. Then you write the prime numbers to get the number sentence!
