Students put forth their best efforts today during karate! We practiced single, double and triple punches. Kids showed good reaction time with high and low blocks. Remember, karate stays in the Dojo!
Wednesday, we had a performance by Quest Theatre "As long as the Sun Shines" We learned about the different group of First Nations people from around Calgary and even a song to help us learn and remember. Students were very engaged learning about the history of Canada and the effects of settlers coming to Canada on the land and the First Nations people. Many students asked very thoughtful questions. We ended with all the kindergarten to grade 3's holding hands in 3 large circles and participating in a friendship dance.
We had so much fun today using our bug research to create a story! We read "Diary of a Worm" and "Diary of a Spider". These stories were creative but also full of facts. Our stories will include many of the facts from our research but also be creative as diary entries in a day in the life of our bug.
Our caterpillars are now in a chrysalis. It's been amazing to watch! We've been learning so much! Our butterflies should emerge Friday or over the weekend. Students have been putting some fruit in their enclosure to feed the butterflies when they emerge. We are all very excited for the metamorphosis!
