This week we celebrated Drop Everything & Read. Every morning for 20 minutes we dropped our work & we all read for 20 minutes!
In word work we practiced making items plural. Some words you can add "s" or "es" & some words are irregular & they change completely.
In science we did an experiment to see what substances would or would not dissolve in water. We first made predications & then tested the items.
In social we are studying the community of Iqaluit, Nunavut. This time of year we get about 2 more hours of sunlight a day then they do. We have been comparing our daily temperature as well. We started by looking at their traditional clothing. Coats were called ANORAKS or PARKAS & made from caribou & seal skins. They were sewed together with sinew & bone needles. Boots were called KAMIKS & made from sealskin, making them waterproof.
I can identifying the main differences in climate between Iqaluit & Calgary.
We read
The Dot by P. Reynolds & created masterpieces of our own. Everything starts with a dot.
