We had a busy week of learning, finishing off some units and moving into some new ones.
In science this week, we continued learning about the sun's energy and how it affects daily and seasonal weather. We also took the time to go outside to notice signs of spring, such as the budding trees and greening grass.
In math, we started learning about 2D and 3D shapes. We sorted 3D shapes into different groups based on the number of edges, vertices, and bases.
In social studies, we finished off learning about Alberta by presenting our Alberta Natural Region slides in front of the class. Ask me about the natural region I researched! Then on Friday, we went on a virtual field trip to the grass land region to visit the Royal Tyrell Museum where we learned about digging up dinosaur bones and fossils!
In writing, we used our stories from home to plan and write our rough draft of our story. We also started to draw a scene from our story in art class! We have been working on using art to tell stories, using Leah Dorain books as our inspiration.
We have been having a blast in gym class learning and playing different games involving scoops, hula hoops, blowing pins, and bean bags! Ask me about the "Sink the Ship" game.
