In the library for our book exchange and work period. Great to see so many students choosing to practice their presentation in front of friends as they prepare for the real presentation in the coming days in front of the class.

Mr. Thompson is working with our class. He is our Learning Resource Teacher (math). Today we were doing a fun math strategy game called “Black Hole”.

Chips Ahoy Dig in class today. Try to separate the bones (chocolate chips) from the earth (cookie). Some palaeontologists were better than others!

[Mr. Brandreth @MrBrandreth]

One of my favourite resources is “The Super Source”. Today we are working with tangrams to create animal shapes.

Today we researched secondary data for the number of summer Olympic medals Canada has won and then plotted the data in a stacked bar graph.

Practicing our loop letters this morning. Ashlynn’s cursive is beautiful as she builds upon letters we have already learned.

I’d like to say thank you to my wonderful students of 5-1 for welcoming my daughter Grace to our class today! She was participating in “Bring Your Child to Work Day” and she absolutely loved every minute of being with all of you!

Although it was raining pretty good yesterday, we still had a blast. Thanks to Scooby Soccer for the good times.

Too many cooks?! Today we are working together in small groups to collaboratively solve a problem in a way that we can all agree upon. It’s harder than you might think!

[Mr. Brandreth @MrBrandreth]

Today and yesterday we worked on our “tree letters”. It’s great to see the the progress!

[Mr. Brandreth @MrBrandreth]

Last week a few of us took a pie to the face to support our top Terry Fox fundraisers. #terryfox @GLVPS Mrs Evers had better eye protection that the rest of us!

[Mr. Brandreth @MrBrandreth]

We’ve been practicing some cursive. Here are some “wave” letters.

Today we are palaeontologists and are digging for “fossils”. A fun STEM activity. Also tasty. 😆
