Students had the opportunity to summarize their news articles out loud for extra credit, as they will every week. After collecting the news articles, students got back their quizzes that they took last Friday.
We then completed worksheet 1-5, which we started on Friday.
The topic of today's discussion was giving meaning to all those metric terms we learned last week. It's fine and dandy to say that 1000 grams equals one kilogram, but what does a kilogram feel like in your hand compared to a gram? What is it close to in our English units? A pound? An ounce? A ton? This is what we are going to discover. We learned today the process of converting from metric to English units, like kilometers to miles.
There is no homework, and the next test is more than two weeks away.
