On Thursday, I invited the students who reached their home reading goal in April to a special "Super Readers" Lunch in the library. We had a lot of fun hanging out, catching up and enjoying a few treats to celebrate.
Building Fluency with Reader's Theatre Plays
As we move into our social unit on government, we had a great conversation about the importance of rules and laws. Why do we need rules? What would our life be like if we didn't have rules or laws? We talked about everything from rules of the road, pollution and its effects on the environment, a variety of safety rules involving many more scenarios. We decided our community would be very chaotic and unsafe if we didn't have certain laws and rules. We came come to the realization that we need rules and laws to live, work and play together safely.
Science Centre and Imax Field Trip
We had a blast at the Science Centre on Tuesday. The Imax Movie, Journey to the South Pacific 3D was fantastic. We ate lunch in the park and had an afternoon of fun in the Science Centre and enjoyed a few minutes on the playground before heading back to school. Here is just a glimpse of our fun!
On Wednesday, we took our buddies into the gym to visit the grade 7/8 Science Fair presentations. Students learned about volcanoes, tornadoes, tsunamis among other natural disasters. Great job grade 7/8's!
Have a great long weekend!
