We will be busy writing this week! We will complete our Young Authors books and work on our final descriptive writing activity: "My Monster".

In math, we continue to work with two dimensional shapes. The students will also work with Tangrams.

In science, we had a great time building our playgrounds. Time permitting, we will start our final science unit called Energy in our Lives. I have booked a second Scientists in Schools workshop to support our Energy unit. It is scheduled for Thursday, May 18.

In drama, we will have a presentation by Rag and Bone Puppet Theatre on Monday, April 24 called "The Dolls' House". This will be followed by a one hour workshop run by the artists on Thursday, April 27. The presentation and workshop is possible with the Adventures in Learning funds, as well as an Ontario Arts Council grant.

A reminder that the Parent Council cake walk is this Friday, April 28.
