This week was Literacy Week! Our theme was “Learning in the Great Outdoors!” This felt like the perfect theme for Div. 5 learning!

We visited our favourite forest places throughout the week to observe, draw, write, and create art! This exploration also helps us understand our inquiry question: “How do animals sense and respond to their environment?”

We learned about gardening by the moon cycles on Monday. We also started indoor planting of parsley and basil.

We guessed our teacher’s favourite books!

This week we finished our class novel, Whale Child and thought about the lessons we want o carry with us and share with others.

In grade 4 math, we have been exploring measurement and geometry in our community! We also created imaginary maps to practice perimeter!

We look forward to continue learning outside and hope you and your family can enjoy the great outdoors this weekend!
