Hello parents,

Today we began our day with the POW and then went right into Read to Self. We then made a salad from the spoils of our Garden Tower. We have powered down the Garden Tower and it will be moving to another class. We learned about Solutions and Mixtures as we talked about the fact that oil and vinegar do not mix. We watched the following video to solidify this concept:

Please ask your child about what they thought of the salad. We then went to French. 

After lunch we had Yoga with Rochelle. After recess we continued with our Social Studies centers. The Grade 4s wrote a diary entry from a Peasants perspective while the Grade 3s learned about a day in the life of a pioneer child. Video here:

They then had to write a diary entry as if they were a pioneer child. We then decided what center we would move on to tomorrow. Stay tuned!
