"Where We Live Shapes What We Do"

"Where We Live Shapes What We Do"

Is the quote that will guiding us through Social Studies at the beginning of this year. Ask you child what this quote means! We will be talking about 3 different types of communities in Canada this year: a Prairie community, a Northern community and a Coastal community. To study these we will look at the provinces Saskatchewan, Nunavut and Nova Scotia. Today we talked about where these 3 provinces are located on a map and colored Alberta and Saskatchewan in on the map of Canada.

Warm Feet for the Street Campaign

Hi everyone, I have had some of you ask about the Warm Feet for the Street Campaign that the Ambassador Club students are organizing and that all grade 4 classes are participating in. If you would like to make a donation we would love to take it. We are accepting donations until Dec. 13 so that the students in the Ambassador Club have time to stuff the socks. We have had a generous parent donate approximately 90 pairs of socks so we are needing stuff to put in them. Please click on the link for items the Mustard Seed accepts for this campaign and items they don’t accept. Thank you in advance for your continued support of our initiatives. This is a great way for our students to give back to our larger community and provide some warmth for those less fortunate this holiday season. Here is the link should you wish more information as well as a wish list for donations: http://www.theseed.ca/assets/files/pdf/christmas_project/Warm%20Feet.pdf Thanks, The ...

Ones & Tens

Today in math we explored the idea behind ones and tens. We talked about how many ones can actually go in the ones place (no more than 9!) and why we have to change them out to the tens when it becomes 10. We practiced creating numbers to 50 today using the ones and tens blocks. Check out some of our work! Making the number 10 Making the number 17 Making 22
