Much of this week in Humanities, was spent reflecting on the SAHT. It was an action packed, whirlwind of a trip! Everyone had such a wonderful time and learned so much in the process. Student reflections are focused on what they learned, what surprised them, the highlights, and what they are still wondering. Students also continued with their novel study. Several students pointed out that many of the locations in their stories they have now visited, giving them a much richer understanding of the text.
We would like to thank our terrific parent volunteers! We truly appreciate your help and support throughout the trips!
Photos from our trips can be accessed through your child. 4.1 and 4.2 have an Edmodo folder and 4.3 and 4.4 have a google folder.

This week in mathematics and science, students have continued to explore their understanding of fractions, decimal fractions, area and perimeter. In science, students continued their work in light and shadow, exploring the absence of light and what is required for us to actually see. We also studied how light interacts with our environment and how light from the sun changes throughout the day.
