Why hello again there! Did you hear we had an exciting visit this Wednesday from Dan Clark of the Roughriders? Well, we did! He shared with us his story of being bullied in elementary school, emphasizing that bystanders have the power to stop bullying. It was a fascinating visit -- and the students were certainly eager for a group selfie afterwards!

It was great afterwards to celebrate a few days of shorts & sunshine outside!
We had another fantastic week in the classroom! Students have really been enjoying the game Bananagrams during Word Work rotations. I particularly enjoyed this great learning moment on the difference between 'die' and 'dye'.
Or perhaps someone just really doesn't like neck wear.
Grade 5 Social Studies presentations went very smoothly! Seeing the high expectations from the Grade 7/8 Heritage Fair led to some costumes.... Here we can clearly see John Cabot talking about his life...
..and here he is again educating others about why he thinks he's Canada's Greatest Explorer. With the wrapping up of Social Studies, we have started a new Science unit. Grade 5s will be building Rube Goldberg machines. More information is available under the 'Assessments' tab above.
Have a great weekend! Please note the following:
-Grade 4 Social Studies presentations Monday
-Cardboard tubes (empty toilet paper rolls) are needed for Science. We need 7 more for the Grade 4s.
-Superhero Day May 8
