April 26
Today we attended the play Return to Treasure Island which was put on by Storybook Theatre. The students loved the action, singing and humour in the play.
Upcoming dates:
Earth Day was on April 22. We discussed ways we can help the earth and wrote a piece on what the Earth would say if it could talk. We also created some beautiful Earth Day art.
In Inquiry we have been conducting several experiments to learn about how we can improve our boat designs. This week we learned about waterproofing and propulsion. Below are some of the simple propulsion types we explored.
This week in math we began learning about 2D and 3D shapes. We explored regular and irregular 2D shapes as well as began learning more about what shapes are polygons in order to help us create our own meaning and understanding of the similarities and differences between shapes.
1) Art materials: we are in need of sticks about 5 cm in diameter and approximately 40 cm long for a very special project. If you could send in any you have from yard work or that you find out walking by Friday May 3rd it would be greatly appreciated.
