The holidays are coming.........and so is our new unit
0 Comment It's nearly the holidays. Pretty soon you will all be catching flights, hitting the beach, seeing family and friends, relaxing and generally having fun. You've worked really hard this year and it's amazing to think that we are half way through Grade 5 already. After the break, we start our 4th unit of inquiry "How the World Works" It looks like it should be fun and there will be lots of opportunity to be a hands on scientist. To get ready for the unit, I want you to do a little bit of thinking. Our central idea is "People investigate and answer questions by using scientific skills and understanding." To help us in our first week back, I would like you to to consider the following questions:
Have fun! Be Safe! Happy Holidays! HOMEWORK
