Welcome back! We had a fantastic first week.  I am very excited for the school year.  This week, students participated in a nest building STEAM activity based on the Dr. Suess book Horton Hatches The Egg. We started our Language Arts curriculum by having students write about what they think they will have accomplished 50 years from now.  In art, students are exploring line, shape, form, space, and texture by completing a name art activity.

Remembrance Day Art Week of October 15th - October 18th Highlights: We are continuing to work through our Number Sense Unit in Math.  We have looked at the concepts of Place Value, Expanded Form, Comparing and Ordering Multi-Digit Numbers and Regrouping.  We had a quiz on Thursday and they will be sent home on Monday. In Science, we are continuing to learn about the Wetlands.  We are exploring different species that live in the wetland and the different adaptations they need to survive.  We will be beginning to create our own wetland creature and write about the different adaptations that it will need to survive. This week students created a Poppy art piece in recognition of Remembrance Day coming up on November 11th.   The Poppy art will be displayed in our classrooms and around the school. Today the Grade 5 were  involved in the Student Vote.  The Grade 6’s came to our classrooms yesterday and told us about all the candidates and wha...
