This Week We Learned:

In LA we continued working on the story we started last week.  We have now written all the way to the end, and are beginning the editing process.  We also learned about similes and adjectives and used them to help us write a poem for Valentine's Day.

In Science, Grade 3s learned about how human activity impacts animal habitats, and how agencies around the world work to help preserve these natural spaces. Grade 4 students learned about light reflection, and made their own lamps.

In Math, we learned how arrays can be used to show division and the related multiplication sentences.  We also had a basic facts quiz, and used our Mathletics time to practice some of the concepts we learned earlier in the year.

In Social Studies, we have continued to learn about natural resources, and the forestry industry in Canada.  

We have also been learning about symmetry, congruency, contrasting and complimentary colours in art, and did reflective writing about our own artwork.
