Reifel Bird Sanctuary and End of Term Two!

Hello Everyone!

Thank you to everyone for a great field trip today!

It was nice weather, the air was fresh, there were birds everywhere, and we had a great guide, Dan the resident biologist at the sanctuary. Many thanks to Candace, Fernando, Pin and Gary, our parents who accompanied us today. Thank you to all the students for great behaviour, as well. I really enjoyed being outside with you all today, and I was glad for the opportunity to share a special place with you, as it is one of my favourite places for relaxing outdoors in the Lower Mainland.

TURNING IN WORK:

I have finished marking all the work for term 2 report cards. Many of you were responsible about keeping up with your assignments, but some of you are still working on turning things in and putting a name on papers without help from me. Next term, Ms. D will not go through assignment by assignment with you, so you will need to be more independent in order to receive marks and to check in with me yourself if you are wondering whether or not all work has been turned in.

REIFEL BIRD HOMEWORK:

There isn’t any homework for the weekend; however, you need to respond to this blog post using your Burnaby ID and answer these questions:

  1. What did you enjoy most from the field trip today? (full sentences, please)
  2. Name at least three birds you saw today (impress me if you saw and remember more than that!)
  3. Name three interesting facts about the bird sanctuary.
  4. Name something you learned related to animal migration.

Have a great, relaxing weekend!!!
