Special Report from our classroom bloggers:

Jiarui, our Social Studies blogger says:
This week in Social Studies, we learned about the stuff that happened in the history of Calgary! Like "what was the role of the Calgary Ton Planning commission? or why was housing so important at this time? It was hard at the start because we had to find the answers in a video, but then Ms. Cowdy helped us and we were totally fine.
Emmaline, our Math blogger reports:
This week in math we had a quiz. We did division, multiplication, subtraction and addition.

This week in Daily Five we continued going over last week's sheet on homonyms. We kept doing read with the teacher, Raz kids and read to self.
