Spirit Day and Water

Don't forget to wear your 'Christmas Gear' tomorrow for Spirit Day.  You can wear Santa hats, elf boots...you choose!  All money raised will go towards the Christmas hampers.


Yesterday, we looked at some samples of water gathered around Ottawa.  Students were asked to think about where it may have come from, would they drink it and words that describe the water.  Afterwards, students were told where the water came from.  We discussed how lucky we are to have easy access to clean water and how others are not so fortunate:(

The Importance of Water and Growing Patterns

We watched a video about the importance of water.  Check it out!


We are learning about growing patterns.  Can you think of a growing pattern made with shapes?
What about numbers?

Nov. 30- First Week of Advent
Dec. 3- Book Fair Preview

Water and Show Me

We continued our inquiry into water.  We watched this wonderful video that is from the perspective of water.  How do you think water feels about humans?

Students continue to work with the app 'Show Me' to share their patterns.   Here are some more good examples of showing our learning! Next week, we will be looking at creating patterns where 2 attributes change (colour, size, shape...).

Padlet and QR Codes

Today, we used the ipads and QR codes to connect to a padlet on water.  Students use padlet to write what they knew about water. We had some technical difficulties (wi-fi!) but most of us got to share our learning.  If you want, you can add to our padlet board:)
