Four Day Week

Last week we held a Remembrance Day Service at school.  Here is a video of our class presentation:


We are nearing the end of our unit on Soils and Plants.  The students were asked to create a poster to promote looking after plants in our world.  The students informed me that they wanted to create posters to protect the grass on the school playgrounds because they have noticed a lot of litter outside.  This turned into a bit of a project including a school yard clean up.  Here we are with the garbage that we collected.

To conclude the soil portion of the unit we are starting a compost project in our classroom.  We have started a brand new bin with fresh worms.  They are just starting to digest the scraps and newspaper that we have given them.
 We took a close look at these critters so we knew exactly what we were dealing with.
Reminders:
Next week conferences are on Tuesday and Wednesday.  If you have not returned the sign up sheet to the office please do so.
