Mid Jan

Hello All,

New project based learning has started! The kids are excitedly writing, planning and sharing ideas to build a Medieval Castle!

Thanks to Ms. M for passing this along…

The science unit is based on Pulleys and Gears. The class was asked to investigate and build a working draw bridge that fits with their castle ideas. Aligning this with ELA, the students have been assigned an Origins Story to explain why they need to build a castle.  PLEASE ASK your child to share, some of the stories are amazing!

On Jan 29th we will be heading out on a field trip to the Tech museum to have a hands-on workshop with working pulleys and gears.

Canada Collage by Grade 4 French Extended

On the last day of school before the Winter Break, students in Madame Sylvie’s Grade 4 French class showed much excitement in assembling their provinces and territories to create a giant map of Canada. Many hours were spent collaborating with a partner to search for information over the past month. Their amazing collage was the last segment to conclude our study of Canada this first term. Stay tuned for upcoming projects on Ancient Civilizations to begin Term 2 in Social Studies.
