Time test answers: small group

Today we talked about our answers from our time and temperature test.  Here are the good answers we had for each question.

Knowledge and understanding:
All 4questions correct gave you a level 4

Thinking
To get a good answer you needed to show how one person took longer than The other.  You also needed to convert the units to the same (all seconds or all minutes).  Also, a clear final sentence was important.

Communication
For this question using math vocabulary was important to talk about the relationship between days and weeks.  To get a 4 you could have given an example like: if you are 52 weeks old we could also say that you were 365 days old.  Here is a sample of an answer that was in the level, but needed a bit more explaining.

Application
This question required us to justify, which means to give reasons as to why we are right.  We had to apply our knowledge of temperature (and reading a chart) to help us solve it.

After March break we will be working on mass and capacity.
