A Well-Deserved Reward

Today we are enjoying an extra special treat. To celebrate our learning about how animals and humans survive, we are watching Wall-E. The themes of this movie will give students a chance to reflect on our topics of study this term. Great job, Room 4!

Our Amazing Dioramas!

Today in Room 4

Our class has been spending a lot of time researching how animals and humans survive and thrive.  Our final project is a diorama, which is a visual representation of everything we have learned during our study.  Here are a few sneak peaks!

We also had a SLC (Social Learning Community, better known as an assembly) which focused on the traditions we share with our friends and family.  One of our school's traditions is our annual Winnipeg Harvest Food Drive.  This year our goal with be to collect 500 pounds of food.  We can do it! Here are some pictures from the assembly.

Remembrance Day

Please read the poem below that we wrote together through the shared writing process.

To all those affected by war, we think of you.

Field Trip to Churchill . . .Kind of!

Today our class took a virtual field trip to Churchill, Manitoba to watch polar bears being their migration.  We were part of a live webcast from Discovery Education Network, where we got to interact with scientists, environmental lawyers and researchers, all who specialize in the protection of polar bears!  We were enough to have many of our questions answered and they even mentioned our class by name!  There were over 1200 other classrooms from around the world that took part and we were the privileged ones to have one of our questions answered first!  It was a fantastic opportunity and tomorrow we will be doing it again!  If you or your class in interested in learning more about polar bears, check out http://www.polarbearsinternational.org/.

We'll be sure to share our learning from this special project soon!
