We are beginning to learn about “Liquids” in Science. Today the students explored water.  They observed it, felt it and explored it using spoons, beakers, measuring cups and test tubes.  We discussed the importance of water.  Feel free to ask your child what he or she knows about water. What scientific facts can they share with you. The students are learning how to use a Storyboard as a plan for writing stories.  This Board will help them collect story elements prior to writing.  We as class created a class generated Storyboard about a book titled, “Sylvester and the Magic Pebble. It includes a beginning, middle and ending of a story. The students will have this storyboard when writing their own story.

The students did a self assessment on their “Bird’s Eye View” today.  It was great to see such honesty… Some students even asked to improve their work by going back to it, to add details.  Feel free to ask your child about it tonight. Looking ahead… We are going to be bringing in some experts about our future playground.  Your child is working through his or her Inquiry project about 3D shapes. Important Dates: October 16 - Home Journals were due back today.   October 20 and 21 - Popcorn Day! The cost for the popcorn is a toonie.  Please support our school fundraiser. Mrs. Sayani

This has sparked them to wonder about what might our Ken Taylor Playground look like? Students will look at the design process from the perspective of many different lenses including parents, students, and teachers. In order for us to begin our project, we are going to go on community walks.  We are in need of 5 volunteers to come on these walks with us. We are planning to go on October 3 and October 5 from 1:00 - 2:30.  If you are able to volunteer and have the volunteer clearance , please send us an email.  Due to a CBE polic...
