Gr 7 Wreaths

Next Monday we will begin work on our Recycled Wreaths for the Festival of Trees. Remember to be forming a plan and collecting your materials. Most of your materials will need to come from home, and all need to be recycled materials. See you tomorrow for the Science Exam!

Gr 1

This week the gr 1s learned about Remembrance Day in Social Studies. We discussed conflict and how it can lead to war. We took a look at the impact of war in terms of human and environmental casualties. The importance and original of wearing poppies was discussed. Take a look at the poppies your children made:


In Art, we are learning a little bit about ancient Egypt. We listened to some music from Egypt and viewed some ancient art. Then the students followed a step by step lesson on how to draw a scarab. I will post pictures of some of the scarabs next week! 

In PE we have been working on throwing and catching. The students learned a new game called Bench Ball that we also play in gr 2/3. They had a great time!

Gr 7

Reminder to the gr 7s that your science Unit Exam is next Wednesday. We corrected the review in class today. That is what you should be studying. Read it over and then have someone quiz you. Remember, the test is all short answer. That means no multiple choice, true and false, matching etc. You need to know your stuff!

Also a reminder to start collecting recycled materials for your wreaths. We will begin work on them in two weeks. Have a restful long weekend!
