We began our new unit on Alberta: The Stories, Histories and People. We completed a KWL chart (reflecting what we know and what we want to know). We also learned some new vocabulary words, and began our study of the aboriginal people and their history.

This week, our focus was to continue building our stamina during locomotor and non locomotor activities. We have been perfecting our crunches, planks and sit-ups by setting individual goals. We also played some of our favourite socially distanced games.

Auroras
Auroras
This week the students worked on a chalk pastel of Auroras. This tied in nicely with our Text Talk Thursday KidBlog post, where we read and answered comprehension questions about the book - Amazing Sights in the Sky: Auroras.
We also read the Inuit legend, Painted Skies by Carolyn Mallory. By using the colour wheel as a guide, we created the Northern Lights in a landscape scene. Make sure you check out the photo gallery for a picture of your child with their completed artwork.
