February 23rd - February 27th

This week we finished our Data Analysis Unit.  Students learned how to collect data using check marks and tallies,  Students also learned how to graph the data that they collected.  We have learned lots of interesting facts about our class including our favourite sports and favourite chocolate bars. 

We have started a new unit about Communities.  On Monday we used Google Earth to visit everyone's house.  We all thought this was pretty amazing!  We have been talking about our neighbourhood, city, province, and country.  Next week we will start building our own community in the classroom. Ask your child what he/she will be building! 

As part of the Read-a-thon, Avery won a ride to class on the principal's chair.  The students in our class who participated in the Read-a-thon won a pizza party which will be on March 13th. If you didn't get a chance to participate you can still send a $10 donation for the playground and join the pizza party!
