September 20th-24th

 Hello families, 

Thanks so much for taking the time to join in on meet the teacher conferences. It was great getting the opportunity to speak with everyone. 

A couple of notes for this upcoming week: 

-Our Library day is every Wednesday. Please have students return any library books they may have. 

-Orange Shirt Day will be on Wednesday, September 29th. This is to honour those who attended residential schools. 

-Thursday, Sept. 30 will be a non-operational day to commemorate truth and reconciliation across the Calgary Board of Education. This means there will be no classes and schools will be closed for the day.

This week in Room 7:

I can determine which materials will float and which ones will sink 

In Science, we spent some time learning about the word density and how to predict which objects will sink, and which will float. After some demonstrations, students were given their own materials and were asked to make their predictions before testing. Then, students were asked to demonstrate their knowledge through a visual journal page.
