Wishing everyone a happy and safe Halloween weekend! It was so much fun seeing everyone’s creative costumes! Thanks for helping me come up with my costume this year too! Your ideas were so thoughtful and fun… perhaps we will need to have some more dress up days this year!<\/p>\n

This week, we started doing some more in-depth research in our inquiry, using different sources of information. First, we started with books from the library. However, we noticed that the information we found was quite vague and we wanted to go deeper. Next, we learned some online strategies to examine digital resources with our teacher librarians, Ms. MacLeod and Ms. Neilsen. Using the school library catalogue collections, we searched up the pollinators we are curious about and who live on Burnaby mountain. Next week, we will draw up our pollinator house plans and be ready to start construction during the week of Nov. 15th! Tell you family if you are learning about the needs of specific types of birds, bats, bees, or beetles!<\/p>\n

In math, grade 4s and 5s had their first formal assessments! We have been exploring each element of the proficiency scales. How can we show our understanding?<\/p>\n

We finally got our first book club books and were excited to learn that they were graphic novels! This week, we examined the features of graphic novels and started noticing them in our first books! Which novel are you reading?<\/p>\n

In the garden, we worked together to move soil from one place to another to make space for our mud kitchen! Stay tuned as we finish creating this space! And let us know if you have any old play or real kitchen utensils, pots, and pans that you are interested in donating!<\/p>\n

Blogfolios was a fun way to end our week! On Thursday, we brought home notices with your family login information. There are many ideas for ways you can connect together on this learning! If you misplaced the notice, you can find it here:
