… many weeks of hard work, a child’s natural curiosity, and a wealth of questions?
You are invited to come to the Margaret Jenkins gym on Tuesday (from 9:50 to 2:15) and
enjoy over 150 displays of kid-made science experiments during our exciting all-school science themed extravaganza.
Throughout the day classes, parents and members of the greater community will be coming to tour the displays and meet our student scientists. Every grade four and five French and English class has participated. The students have worked very hard and are proud of what they have accomplished. It should be an exciting day.
We hope you can join us!
COME & FIND OUT WHY SCIENCE IS COOL.
For homework today, students were told about a spelling test coming Nov. 30th. It is a review of many of the words they have already practiced studying in the last 6 weeks or so. The idea is that repetition will help them to remember these words. You should find a note about this in your child’s agenda. Trouble is, I forgot to hand home the study list, so here it is: monster-review-test !
Of course, there is also a Science Quiz on Chapter 9 on Wednesday. This was announced to the class last week.
… a science quiz was announced in the class for this Wednesday. The date for this should already have been written into the student agendas. It’s on Chapter 8, “Adaptation”, in the textbook. Students have the questions and answers written in their science duotangs, as well as some notes, and these are what they should study. Look for the highlighted questions/answers, they are more likely to be on Wednesday’s quiz. We have already begun studying in class, and will do more this week!
Here’s a demo quiz on the chapter. Select the quiz for Chapter 8!
The research websites are due at the end of the school day on Wednesday, June 8th. Students will be given time every day to work on their websites. They are also expected to work on them every evening for homework, and over the weekend.
The due date for the science display boards was also announced today, but that project is to be completed all during school hours. The experiments and their display boards are due Friday, June 3rd.
