I thought I’d like to share with you what we’re learning this week. After interviewing a few kindergarten students, they told me they are working on learning letters, words and reading. Walking by the Grade 1 and 2 classroom let me know that they are working on estimation. Mr. Fox came to teach the grade 3 and 4 class about climate change as part of their unit on taking care of God’s creation, and according to Miss Soldan, the Grade 5 and 6 class is studying an evidence and investigation unit and particularly, on observation skills. Mr. Faught and the grade 7s and 8s are exploring structures and forces in science.
