In Flanders Fields

Digging History

Hello Folks! Have you ever dug up a bead, string, arrowhead, or feather before? Well, we have! Today, our class went to the Transcona Museum. While there, we listened to how oral stories can tell us about the past, and help us predict the future. Next, we used a strainer, a dust pan, a paint brush and tin foil bowls to separate the artifacts from the sand.  Learning by doing hands on activities is fun!  Here are some pictures and videos from the day!

Where would you like to visit in Canada?

Today, our class finally found out which province/territory we would each be studying.  With our partner, we spent time finding facts and writing them down.  We searched for information about the land and the weather and climate in Canada.  Soon, we will share our learning by creating a diorama that includes the land forms of Canada, as well as the major lakes and waterways.  We hope you will visit back soon to see our progress!

Teamwork in Action

We are starting to learn about the Federal, Provincial, Municipal and First Nations levels of government. To kick of, we used teamwork at our table groups to work on a Map of Canada puzzle, then worked to fill out our own maps of Canada together. This is all leading up to a special presentation we will be sharing with the the school and special guests that incorporates both our science and social studies learning. 

At Radisson School, We CARE, SHARE and PLAY FAIR

At Radisson School, we care, share and play fair.  We spent some time as a class discussing what that really means, as seen through the pictures from our RAD Day (Recess Activity Day).  In table groups, we wrote a brief description about what the pictures below display.  Enjoy!
