What we have been doing this week in 5th grade

This week in math we learned about the simplest form of a fraction For Example, 50/100 = 1/2.we also learned about converting a decimal into a fraction , .3 can be converted into 3/10. We also learned about multiples , a multiple is basically a  number that other numbers can multiply into.A small group of us are working on adding unlike fractions An Example of this is,2/3 + 5/6 = 1 1/2. In Reading we are making our literary response to Because of Winn Dixie. In writing we are making a rough draft for our narratives. We are also reading narratives and looking for strong verbs.
