During math period, we applied the concepts learned during the fraction unit to design healthy sandwiches based on the food groups.

In writing, the students worked diligently on their Indigenous stories: create a story plan, write, revise, edit, provide feedback, insert illustrations and share with the entire class. I am very proud of their amazing work!

In social studies, the students learned about pros and cons of renewable and non-renewable resources used by us in our province.

Tomorrow we are having a Pajama or Comfy Clothes day. 

Please note due to Covid-19 restrictions, please leave items like stuffed animals, toys or slippers at home.

Students will be asked to put them in their bags should they bring them to School.

Have a restful Spring Break, we will see you on Tuesday April 6.

 During the math period, the students were busy learning about fractions, comparing and ordering them while applying this mathematical concept in the field of nutrition.

In writing we started to work on creating Indigenous stories, which aim to explain natural processes as well as to teach the readers valuable lessons about living in society.

While learning about clouds and atmospheric pressure, the students conducted diverse science experiments.

In social studies the focus was on fossils found in Alberta, the history of this land and natural resources found in our province.

Dear parents, I want to thank you for all the support you have provided to your kids as we continued the learning in the online format in the past two weeks.

We will be back in the classroom on Friday, March 19th, 2021

 In math we were busy solving complete and incomplete division word problems as well as creating our own problems starting from a division sentence. 

Using the information provided by the solar panels installed on our school roof, we conducted an investigation regarding the impact of the weather on the electricity production.

By creating a timeline, the students have learned about the significant events that followed after the discovery of oil in Turner Valley, which impacted the Albertans' life quality as well as the environment.

In writing, the students immersed themselves in the Indigenous culture by reading several stories and reflecting in writing on the lessons learned.

By using pictographs, like the ones that can be found at Written On Stone Provincial Park, the students created stories and used their oral language to share them with their peers.
