Terry Fox Run!

Here is what our students would like to report for this week:

Today we did some hard math.  We worked together to solve a problem.  See the link below to try it at home.  This is a flexible thinking question.

We ran around the windmill and back.  We ran together to keep Terry's Marathon of Hope going.  We wrote about who our heroes are.  We talked about superheroes and heroes, comparing and contrasting them.  Ask me who my hero is.  We have been learning about Terry Fox all week.

Yesterday we did a science experiment as part of our Hot and Cold Temperatures unit.  We put one hand in hot tap water, one in cold and counted for 20 seconds.  After that, we put both hands into the room temperature water to see what would happen.  We recorded our experiment in our Visual Journals because we are learning to be scientists who record our findings.

We went to the library today.  Watch in my backpack - I should have one new book for home and the other stays at school in my bin.

Mrs. McArthur came to visit us a few times today.  We are happy to have her join us in Room 51.
