The class had a marvelous March! They were super busy finishing our Science unit on Position and Motion. We spent a lot of time learning about what impact an inclined plane can have on the motion of a vehicle. In April we will be further looking at Materials and Structures. The students had an opportunity in March to visit the Children’s Museum and got to participate in a program all about Materials and Structures. They first sorted materials into strong and weak piles. Next, in groups the students created a structure using recyclable materials. Their goal was to create the strongest structure that wouldn’t blow away or get knocked down. All these structures were then tested with a leaf blower! The students had so much fun and it was a great introduction to our unit! 

The class was also finished up our unit in Social Studies on Canada, specifically exploring the communities in Prince Edward Island and Nunavut. In April we will be starting our new Social Studies unit on Exploring the World.

Our class had the opportunity to present a Pro-Social skill at one of the assemblies. Our topic was on “Inviting Others to Join”. The students came up with ideas for a PowerPoint presentation and even got to record their voices reading the presentation. It was really fun to watch it at our assembly! 

A big thank you to all of the families that I talked to for Parent Teacher, it was great to connect with everyone!
