September 21st- Weekly Blog

Hi Parents,

It was lovely meeting most of you this week during our learning conferences. Here is a recap on what we did last week, and what to expect in the coming week.

Humanities 
This week we have started to work on parts of speech. We have focused on nouns, adjectives, verbs and adverbs.
We have started to read the novel Holes as a class and have had some great discussions surrounding identity.

Math/Science
This week in math we finished up some work with place values and started looking at graphing. Next week we will be exploring graphs and charts further by measuring the shadows cast by the sun during the Equinox. Hopefully we get some sunny days!
In science we finished up our weather visual journal page. Next week we are planning to shift into our Wetlands unit with the hope of exploring some of the wetlands within Tuscany before the weather gets too cold.   

Reminders:
Monday October 15th -Fort Calgary field trip. Please let us know if you are able to volunteer for this trip and have your volunteer clearance.
Friday September 28th- Fundraising books due back at the school
