Science
Small Crawling and Flying Creatures!!

Today we started exploring small, crawling and flying insects by going up to the top of our Field and observing what we saw. We created I See/I Think/I Wonder note in our Visual Sketchbooks. Tomorrow we will be going up again and taking more scientific sketches, notes and drawings. Next week we will be going to the Wetlands on Monday June 11th from 10-11. Notes will come home tomorrow regarding this, but if you are able and interested in volunteering please email me at imlagrana@cbe.ab.ca. 



James and the Giant Peach

Today we read up to Chapter 13 of James and the Giant Peach. Ask me what new characters we met? If you have missed a few days please feel free to listen along until you get to the end of Chapter 12.

Fiction or Non-Fiction??

Today we read the book Are you an Ant? 

We then tried to figure out if this book was fiction or non-fiction based on the clues from the text. Some of us thought Non-Fiction because it was full of true facts and information about Ants. 

Some of us thought that it must be fiction because the pictures were not real photographs and the information was told like a story.

Some of us thought that maybe there is another category that this series would fit into that has some of both non-fiction and fiction combined? We will keep investigating this and see if there is a different genre that this series would fit into. 

We will keep investigating this through our reading.
