Welcome to our class blog. This is a test run. The district no longer provides tech support for blogs so we’re on our own and it might take a few tries to get the settings right.
These beautiful paintings were inspired by the changing of the seasons. Students went outside and collected leaves, we talked about why they change colours when they do. They then drew, outlined and finally painted their leaves. All art will come home at the end of the year in an art folder.

As we near the end of our months long salmon unit, today we did a dissection of an adult salmon. Upon cutting the salmon open, the students were very excited to discover it was a female. There were lots of comments about sushi and caviar. We removed the internal organs, including the eye and the brain, which you can see in the images above. A big thank you to Saskia, my assistant and to Sameera, the photographer.
This afternoon, Lucky from the Urban Safari Rescue Society came to visit us with some animal friends. The students were mostly fascinated (maybe a little worried) about the critters. The society has a physical location that is currently closed due to a fire but will reopen in the fall.
