Grams and Kilograms
When learning about grams and kilograms, we lined up all the boxes from
heaviest to lightest. It was colourful, fun and educational!!

Quilts
One of the most exciting things that the Grade 5’s did this year was to make quilts! It was a long-ranging project, but everybody stuck it out and did a great job. We started in September, took a break during December, and finished in early spring. Each of the students assembled the pieces on sewing on machines and then sewed the binding on by hand. As you can see from the photos, the final products are really terrific!

Our Dinosaur
We drew a dinosaur on the pavement in chalk. From head to tail, it took up
the whole length of our play yard.
As you can see, a child is not even as big as one leg of this giant beast!

Library Cards
We show off our personal public library cards. It was a proud day when both girls received their own card.
