Hi Families, 

Our week was all about celebration!

We hosted our Kindergarten assembly and taught the school about the five species of birds nominated for Calgary's Bird. Our assembly is posted in Google Classroom for you to watch as a family: Google Classroom --> Classwork --> Whole Class Artifacts of Learning --> Kindergarten Assembly

 
Thank you to all the families who donated building materials for our Buddy STEM challenge! Students worked with their big buddy to build a structure that would protect an egg from a fall. They could not wrap the egg in materials, but had to build a structure that they egg was placed into. Many incorporated tubes, doors and flaps to keep the egg inside, and modified their design after initial testing to ensure it was stable, and wouldn't tip over when dropped. We had a great time! Photos of the challenge are posted in Google Classroom. Google Classroom --> Classwork --> Whole Class Artifacts of Learning --> Buddy STEM Challenge.

Have a wonderful weekend everyone!
