Math
Today we talked about unit rates. We can think of unit rates in terms of multiplication or division. For example:
Carter read 9 pages of his book each evening. If he read for 6 evenings, how many pages would he read?
9 pages each evening X 6 evenings = 54 pages

Ava bought 7 identical t-shirts at the store. She spent $42. What was the cost of each t-shirt?
$42 ÷ 7 t-shirts - $6 each t-shirt

The grade 5 lesson was similar, just involved more calculations.

Science
Yesterday we talked about the environmental impact of making paper. Do you remember some of the ideas you wrote in your book?
