Welcome Spring!!! This is a favourite time of year and we look forward to all of the things that this new season brings including the chirping birds, green grass, budding leaves on the trees and colourful flowers.
We will be studying plants and animals in Science and we were lucky to have a guest speaker today from The Alberta Institute For Wildlife Conservation. We were introduced to some important vocabulary such as adaptation and migration. Be sure to ask your child what he/she learned or liked most about this presentation on wildlife in Alberta. I have placed the link below if you are interested
in learning more.
We look forward to sharing our robin's eggs and nests that we made out of play dough and modelling clay. We have also been writing some super sentences about Spring. Our writing expectations are increasing as the year moves forward so be sure to practice your sentence writing as part of your weekly homework.
We will also be starting our Building Things unit in Science. Over the next two weeks, please send in recycled materials that will be useful for building a structure. These recycled materials can include cereal boxes, clean yogurt containers, kleenex boxes, paper towel rolls, plastic water bottles etc. We will be collecting the materials and we will be sharing what has been collected on our building day.
Please check the music blog as students are reminded to practice the songs for our Spring Play on April 21st (be sure to send in your form and money to purchase tickets).
Thank you for your support.
