     This week in math, we will study customary measurement. In module 2 we only covered metric units and conversions. Students have to identify appropriate units to use to measure various objects. For example an ounce would be the most appropriate unit to use for measuring the weight of a grape. An inch would be the unit to use for measuring the length of a pencil, while a mile would be the best unit to use for measuring the distance from JBE to Everbank Stadium.

Students will also learn how to add and subtract decimals. We will take our test on module 6 on this Friday.

     This week in science we will begin our life science unit. We will begin with the reproduction in flowering plants. During this lesson students will learn that flowering plants have both male and female parts. Students will learn that pollen must move from the stamen to pistil (pollination) and down into the ovary (fertilization) before reproduction can take place.
