Magical Monday!!!

Welcome back after what I hope was a fabulous long weekend for all! 

Today was a magical Monday - it sure seemed like the students were all rested up 

and ready to work today! Our day was full - starting with a Character Ed assembly, 

followed by music, reading and our Star Student presentation.

In Social Studies we are continuing to work on our mapping skills - and today we talked about the importance of symbols, keys, titles and labels on maps. The students were able to draw some symbols as well as try out their map reading skills to answer some questions. 

We will continue to study mapping skills - creating our own maps, learning about continents, oceans and where we are in the world. This will be very helpful when comparing our place in the world with India, Peru, Ukraine and Tunisia.

In Science, we will continue studying our rocks by testing their different properties - 

such as colour, hardness, lustre, etc.

Just a reminder that coming up on this Friday - we will be having our Terry Fox 

run. RBES has asked all of our students to try and bring in a "Toonie For Terry" -

 to try and support his legacy.
