This week we have 3 field trips planned so it will be a busy and active week. On Monday afternoon Michelle Spencer and I are taking the class to Fulford creek to release our coho salmon. On Wednesday morning we go with Charlotte Bowman to Blackburn Lake for a pond study. Then on Thursday we travel to Pender to spend some time with Mr. Kennedy's grade 4/5 class.

Reading: We have chosen a script for our year end class play, it is Peter Pan. For the next couple of weeks we will be re-reading and revising the script and students will be choosing parts in the cast.
Writing: Now that we've finished with our character study, students will be spending some time using graphic organizers to outline a fictional story. Then we'll begin writing down some ideas about character, setting and plot. Next will be a draft of their story.
Tech: Students are working with "Hour of Code" online and I've been teaching them about the binary system. We also have a Sphero robot which is programmable with code. We started last week and everyone loves it. We've named the Sphero "Gandalf."
