Trouble in the Ocean


Save the Ocean Animals

Some sea creatures need help.Many kinds of animals live in the ocean. Some of those animals are endangered. That means they are in danger of dying out. Only a few are left in the world. Scientists are trying to keep endangered animals safe.

Green Sea Turtle

Pacific Stock/SuperStock

The green sea turtle lives in warm waters. An adult green sea turtle eats mostly plants. It can weigh up to 440 pounds. Its shell can grow to 4 feet long. A green sea turtle can't pull its head into its shell the way some turtles can.

Why are green sea turtles endangered? People hunt them for their meat and eggs. The turtles also get trapped in nets used to catch fish. Pollution hurts the turtles too. If turtles eat trash, it can kill them.

Blue Whale

Denis Scott/Corbis

The blue whale is the largest animal in the world. It is as big as an airplane. The whale can grow to 90 feet long and weigh more than 100 tons. A ton is equal to 2,000 pounds.

The blue whale lives in all the oceans. It eats tiny animals called krill. A blue whale can eat about 4 tons of krill each day.

Blue whales are endangered. People once hunted them for their meat and fat. The fat was used to make oil for lamps. Special laws now protect blue whales. People no longer hunt them.

Great White Shark

Stephen Frink/Science Faction/Corbis

The great white shark is the largest meat-eating shark. It grows to about 15 feet long. It weighs up to 5,000 pounds. The shark has rows of long, sharp teeth. It eats fish, dolphins, seals, and other ocean animals.

Great white sharks are often found in waters near the coast. A coast is land next to the ocean.

People are a threat to great white sharks. People hunt them for their teeth, jaws, and meat. The sharks also get caught in fishing nets.

THE PERCUSSION FAMILY AND INSTRUMENT REVIEW (June 8-12) Ferndale 3rd-5th Elementary Music: Lesson 5 Paper Supplement

DIRECTIONS: If you have access, an online version of this lesson is available through the link on the Ferndale School District website. You can also access the online version directly through this link: https://sway.office.com/FdpWGpv68zPNjp9z?ref=Link&loc=mysways

Complete the Exit Ticket at the end, and your answers will be recorded online for your music teacher to see. If this paper version works best for your family, we hope to provide you with the same information as best we can. We look forward to making music together soon and thank you for working with your children!

THE PERCUSSION FAMILY: There are many instruments in the percussion family that we will study closely. Beginning percussionists play in the 6th grade band in middle school. They will likely learn to play keyboard instruments (like the xylophone and glockenspiel) as well as snare drum and bass drum, so piano skills make the percussion instruments much easier to understand.

We want you to know: 1. How percussion instruments make their sounds 2. How pitched percussion are different from unpitched percussion 3. And out of all the instruments we studied, which instrument you like the best

* * * * * * * * *

With a name that means "the hitting of one body against another," instruments in the percussion family make sounds when they are struck, shaken, or scraped. Often, the instrument itself, or a part of the instrument, creates a vibration such as a drumhead, the metal body of a triangle, or the beads within a maraca. In large ensembles, the percussion section provides a variety of rhythms, textures and tone colors, and percussion instruments are classified as either pitched or unpitched. Pitched instruments play specific pitches or notes, just like the woodwind, brass and string instruments. Unpitched instruments produce a sound with an indefinite pitch, like the sound of a hand knocking on a door. The percussion instruments make up a diverse international family, with ancestors from Asia, Africa, Europe, the Middle East, and the Americas, and they represent musical styles from many different cultures.

UNPITCHED PERCUSSION: The snare drum joined the orchestra nearly 200 years ago. It has two calfskin or plastic drumheads stretched

tightly over a hollow metal frame. The player strikes the top head with wooden sticks. The bottom head, or snare-head, has metal wires, called snares, stretched tightly across it. When this unpitched drum is struck on the top head, the snares add a rattling sound as they vibrate against the bottom head.

The famous composer, Mozart, added the deep, booming, unpitched sound of the bass drum to the orchestra in 1782. Constructed like a snare drum, but without snares, the bass drum is much larger and is played on its side, so that either head may be struck. The beater or mallet for a bass drum is large with a soft material such as sheep's wool covering the end.

https://sway.office.com/FdpWGpv68zPNjp9z?ref=Link&loc=mysways

Cymbals are made from two large, brass plates with leather hand straps. When the player crashes them together, only the edges touch, because the plates are curved. Different sized cymbals make a wide range of sounds. Some are so small that they are played with just the fingers, and they make a high “ding”. You can also play one cymbal at a time with drumsticks or

mallets while the cymbal is suspended on a string or stand.

The guiro (pronounced “wee-roe”) comes from South and Central America. Guiros were first made from gourds (large fruits with hard skins) that were carved or notched to create a ridged surface. A player scrapes the guiro with a stick. Modern guiros can be made of plastic, metal or wood.

PITCHED PERCUSSION: The xylophone is made with hardwood bars. Longer bars make a lower sound. As the bars get shorter, the pitches also get higher. With the larger, lower bars on the left, the notes of the xylophone are laid out much

like a piano keyboard. Striking the bars with hard mallets produces a bright, sharp sound. The xylophone was originally modeled after an African instrument and its name is Greek, meaning "wood sound".

Timpani, or kettledrums, were the first drums to be added to the orchestra over 300 years ago. They are made of a large copper bowl with a drumhead stretched across the top. When struck with felt-tipped wooden mallets, timpani produce a specific pitch that is determined by the drum's size. That pitch is fine-tuned as the player tightens the head with foot pedals. Most ensembles use three or four timpani of different sizes.

DISTANCE LEARNING REVIEW: BAND, STRINGS, CHOIR AND THE INSTRUMENT FAMILIES We have studied the brass, woodwind, string, and percussion families, and we began these online lessons learning about the choices you may have in middle school. Do you know which class to take after deciding which instrument you like the best? If you want to sing, sign up for choir. Brass, woodwind, and percussion players take band, and string players take strings. We would be so excited to see you in a concert some day!

Each of your music teachers picked her instrument for a different reason. Mrs. Dooley wanted an instrument to fit inside her backpack, and Mrs. Saxman was inspired by movie music. Mrs. Smith’s grandma gave her a guitar and the music to Yesterday by the Beatles. Mrs. Barnreiter wanted a fun instrument she could take anywhere and could play many styles. Mrs. Bianco didn’t know any of the instruments, so she just copied her best friend. What will you choose?

Water Bottle Fun!

Class: __________________________________

Water Bottle Flip: challenge a friend or family member to a bottle-flipping contest. You will need a plastic water bottle with a flat bottom filled about three quarters of the way with water. Hold the bottle by the lid and flip it, trying to

land it upright on a table or flat surface.

Water Bottle Stand-up Challenge: Using a plastic water bottle that is three quarters full of liquid, place it on your four

head while lying flat on your back. Try to stand up without the bottle falling!

Water Bottle Bowling: This is a fun indoor activity if the weather is not great. Using several plastic water bottles set them up in a bowling pin formation in an area with a smooth, flat surface (such as a hallway or kitchen). Using a

lightweight ball, try to knock down the bottles.

Math Fact Practice Ideas Practice Building Numbers: Rounding, estimating, add groups of 10 or 100 Skill Level: Basic

• Flash cards Go through the stack and sort them into got it and work on it. Post the “work on it” facts around the house.

• Roll the Dice: roll and multiply, roll and divide • Deck of Cards: deal two and find the sum or difference, product or quotient. Play

with adding and subtracting fractions or multiplying or dividing fractions (5th) • On the Go: add numbers on license plates as cars pass • Just blurt out math facts randomly… “Quick, what’s 9+7?”

Skill Level: Intermediate (Technology Needed)

• Print sheets. Head to DadsWorksheets.com and print your own basic addition or subtraction facts sheets for free.

• Download an app. Go to your App Store and search for “math facts”. There are lots of free ones like Math Fact Master.

Math Game Ideas:

• Top It: For a twist on the traditional card game War, assign values of 1 to the ace, 11 to the jack, 12 to the queen, and 13 to the king, and face value for the cards two through 10 (for younger children, limit the game to number cards only). Playing in pairs, each student lays two cards face up, then subtracts the lower number from the higher. Whoever has the higher answer wins all four cards. If the totals are the same, the players flip over two more cards and repeat until there is a winner. Challenge: Use the two cards to form a fraction, and then compare to see who has the larger fraction. If they are equivalent, repeat until someone wins the round.

• Twister Math: Stick labels with numbers, shapes, or images of coins onto the circles of a Twister mat. Give each student in turn an equation, a description of a shape, or an amount of money, then have the student place his or her hand or foot on the answer. Challenge: Label the mat with numbers ending in zero, then call out numbers and tell kids they must round up or down to the nearest answer

• Number Builders: Give each pair of students a die with six to nine sides. Have them set up blanks for the digits in a number. (Their numbers should be the same length, from four to nine digits long.) Before playing, decide if the highest or lowest number will win. Students take turns rolling the die and filling in blanks. Once a number has been written, it cannot be changed. Roll until all blanks are filled, and then compare the numbers. If time permits, have students subtract to find the difference between their numbers. Challenge: Instead of building an integer, build a fraction or decimal.

• Home Games: Look at the games you already have at home. A lot have math skills that are used to play. These include: Monopoly, Suduko, Bingo, dominoes, card games, or look at what you have and see if you can make it involve numbers.

Reading

Read for 20-30 min Read to a family member Book Journal: Summarize what you read each time.

Create a book review Draw a picture and label a character you read about in a book.

Read and book and then watch the movie. Make a list of similarities and differences.

Reading Game Put on a play Write a letter to a friend or a family member

Reading Game Ideas:

• What's the Question? Level: Any Level Form two teams. Explain the game, with a few examples of answers from a book/movie/show in search of questions. Ask, 'What's the question?', and have your child correctly say the corresponding questions for your answer: (Think Jeopardy) Have players--one from each team--come to the front. Next, read an answer to a question and say, 'What's the question?' The fastest player to respond wins a point for her/his team. New contestants come to the front for a new round. Rationale: This game allows children to think backwards a little, so they must provide a grammatically perfect question. All too often, they are used to answering rather than asking questions, so this is challenging and useful as review.

• Chain Spelling (Shiri-tori) Level: Easy to Medium Someone gives a word and asks another to spell it, and then a second person should say a word beginning with the last letter of the word given. The game continues until someone makes a mistake, that is, to pronounce the word incorrectly, misspell it or come up with a word that has been said already, then he/she is out. The last one remaining in the game is the winner. This game can be made difficult by limiting the words to a certain category, e.g.. food, tools, or nouns, verbs, etc.

• Describing Appearances & Characteristics of People Level: Easy to Medium (Low to low intermediate)

Each person is given one sheet of paper. One sits at the front of the group. He/she describes a person and the rest of the people draws the person being described. It is more interesting if the person being described is known by everyone. Once person in the front has finished describing that person then he/she reveals who it is, and everyone shows his/her drawing. The perspn in the front who was describing, picks the best picture.

• What's the Meaning? Level: Medium to Difficult You may need a dictionary do this activity. Choose a word which is long, difficult, and unknown to the group, a good word to begin with is: flummox (bewilder, dumbfound, or mystified) Without using a dictionary, your students write down a definition. Allow them a few minutes to think and write. Collect the definitions and read them aloud. When you have finished reading, they will have to vote which of those is the correct one. (It doesn't matter if none of them is the correct one) After they have voted and none of the groups guessed the meaning you read the correct one aloud.

Writing

Daily Journal Write a poem Writing Games Writing Games:

• Sentence Race Level: Any Level A good game for reviewing vocabulary. Prepare a list of review vocabulary words.

1. Write each word on two small pieces of paper. That means writing the word twice, once on each paper.

2. Organize the pieces like bundles, 2 bundles, 2 sets of identical words. 3. Divide into 2 teams. 4. Distribute each list of words to both teams. Each team should have a paper. Both teams have the

same words. 5. When you call a word, 2 people should stand up, one from each team. The students must write a

sentence using their word. The winner is the one with a correct and clearly written sentence. This is always a hit with kids. For more advanced students, use tougher words.

• Pictionary (Game 1) - revamp - Charades (Game 2) Level: Any Level Write out series of categories like professions (doctor, bus driver, etc.), animals, foods, actions (fishing, haircut, etc.) then divide into groups of 2. One person draws and the other guesses. Next turn, the guesser draws and drawer guesses. This game works best with the arbitrary stopwatch (30 seconds). Then for another day take the same categories (or create new ones) and play the same game except students, this time, act it out (no speaking or noises).

• Spelling Contest Level: Any Level Divide into 2 teams. then say a word or a sentence depending on the level for the students to spell. Teams should spell these correctly with not even one mistake. The team that has more points is the winner
