Today in Math we began exploring how we can represent a pattern rule with an expression using a variable, and apply that expression to find a particular term in the pattern. Many students felt overwhelmed and confused by this concept, so it's important to note that we will be continuing with this work but breaking it down into smaller and more manageable concepts.

We spent time reading and catching up on unfinished work, had our book fair buying time, and used GoNoodle to get our daily physical activity. We also finished up our Cordillera jot notes in Social Studies and began exploring the concept of matter in Science, highlighting the different properties of the states of matter.
