This week in Daily Five we filled in our checklist. Today we also had a spelling test on our Word Work words. WOW #15 this week was about activities we liked to do with our families. Some students who are not finished may be bringing their journals home to finish.
Abdulahad, our Math blogger reports:

Leander, our Science blogger reports:
In Science this week, we were testing bridges and learned that you should use triangles because it helps spread out the weight. We also did a structures STEM activity at My World day at Simon Fraser school. We also had the chance to view the University of Calgary's cool solar car. See the pictures below.
Senna, our Social Studies blogger says:
This week in Social Studies, we were looking at photos that Ms Cowdy took of the fences in the Coventry Hills mural. The pictures on the fences were painted to represent Calgary's history. We had to sketch the ones we recognized and knew about and write a bit about them.Our challenge this weekend is to try and figure out what the symbols represent in the pictures above.
