1 month down...

and 1 month to go!  Summer is half over!!!!  WOW!   We've had some great days.  My family has really enjoyed the lake this summer and soaking up every bit of sunshine that we can!  On the rainy days, we've enjoyed reading lots of books and playing games.
Tomorrow, I'm mailing each of you a letter to welcome you to Grade 4!  I'm so excited to meet you all. I know that we will have a great year together!  I'll come back later and post some pictures of my summer.

Field Trip to Maclab Centre

Peter Puffin entertained us with his guitar and sing-a-long songs about the environment.  This presentation was provided by the City of Leduc to kick off Environmental Week.   Be sure to check out the City of Leduc's web page for more exciting events happening this week.  For example, the Waste Reduction Fair is taking place at the LRC on June 5th and 6th from 4-8pm, with free refreshments and giveaways!  We enjoyed the beautiful walk and Slurpees on the way home. :-)







Lenses




We finished off our Light and Shadow unit learning about convex and concave lenses!  It was pretty cool to see how the image on the other side of a convex lens flipped when it got past the focal point.

Field Trip - Leduc #1

What a great field trip... yes, it rained, which prevented us from being able to go onto a real life derrick, but we still had lots of fun inside.  This was a well run field trip by the knowledgeable staff at Leduc #1 in Devon.  We learned about Leduc's history and all about our natural resources, in particular, oil!   We are very lucky to live in a province so rich in natural resources.   The students were exceptional in their behaviour, but then again, we expect nothing less of our Cougars!   Well done, 4C!
