Grade 5 is starting Innovation Day!!! Our class was split into groups of 3 and 4. I am working with Noa and MincraftMan1. Noa is a Researcher, and I and MinecraftMan1 are Typers.

Hi, Shayna here. Today we were reviewing our multiplication tables. We got laminated worksheets with whiteboard markers and a die (Everyone got different sizes). Some people worked in pairs, and some others worked alone. Here is a picture of me doing multiplication in class:

Ingredients:

• ¾ Cups of cream
• 2 tbs. Sugar
• ½ tsp. vanilla extract

• 3 cups ice
• ⅓ cups kosher salt
• 1 large ziplock
• 1 Small ziplock
• Plastic spoons

Process

• First, we each got a small and a large ziplock bag
• Then, we each got cream, vanilla extract, and sugar
• After, we got ice and salt in our big bags
• Finally, we put the small bag in the big bag and shook it for 7 – 9 mins

Reflection

My ice cream turned out as this creamy mixture, like whipped cream. I gave my ice cream to someone else, and he liked it. I think it was the best ice cream I could’ve made.

Today we started cursive writing! I used to know cursive but I need a little reviewing. I’m so excited to start this new unit. It will be fun to start learning cursive again! My hand has 3 bruises. My hand hurts so bad because of all the writing.

לְאִישׁ הַשֶּׁלֶג שֶׁלִּי יֵשׁ צָעִיף בְּצֶבַע וָרֹד
לְאִישׁ הַשֶּׁלֶג שֶׁלִּי יֵשׁ כְּפָפוֹת בְּצֶבַע יָרֹק
לְאִישׁ הַשֶּׁלֶג שֶׁלִּי יֵשׁ מְחַמְּמֵי אָזְנַיִם בְּצֶבַע כָּחֹל
לְאִישׁ הַשֶּׁלֶג שֶׁלִּי יֵשׁ מְעִיל בְּצֶבַע כָּחֹל
בַּחוּץ יוֹרֵד שֶׁלֶג וְיֵשׁ שֶׁלֶג עַל הָאֲדָמָה

In this week’s parashah, פָּרָשָׁה וָאֵרָא, we learned that listening to listen to others/Paying attention to them is very important.

וַיַּ֤עַן מֹשֶׁה֙ וַיֹּ֔אמֶר וְהֵן֙ לֹֽא־יַאֲמִ֣ינוּ לִ֔י וְלֹ֥א יִשְׁמְע֖וּ בְּקֹלִ֑י כִּ֣י יֹֽאמְר֔וּ לֹֽא־נִרְאָ֥ה אֵלֶ֖יךָ יְהֹוָֽה׃

But Moses spoke up and said, “What if they do not believe me and do not listen to me, but say: יהוה did not appear to you?”

וַיֹּ֧אמֶר אֵלָ֛יו יְהֹוָ֖ה (מזה) [מַה־זֶּ֣ה] בְיָדֶ֑ךָ וַיֹּ֖אמֶר מַטֶּֽה׃

יהוה said to him, “What is that in your hand?” And he replied, “A rod.”

וַיֹּ֙אמֶר֙ הַשְׁלִיכֵ֣הוּ אַ֔רְצָה וַיַּשְׁלִכֵ֥הוּ אַ֖רְצָה וַיְהִ֣י לְנָחָ֑שׁ וַיָּ֥נׇס מֹשֶׁ֖ה מִפָּנָֽיו׃

[God] said, “Cast it on the ground.” He cast it on the ground and it became a snake; and Moses recoiled from it.

This parashah teaches us to listen to others.

For example, when someone is trying to talk to you, you listen to them and pay attention to them.

When you ignore them, they will feel frustrated.

They might be hungry of they might need help with something.
