BABIES!

Our praying mantis started to hatch this morning!  All of a sudden the sac erupted and the babies started to pour out.  It was like a scene from a horror movie!  We created a habitat for them to in an old aquarium.  In a few days we will take one home for our gardens.

A Differnet Week!

These past couple of weeks in grade five have been very different. We went to the fish hatchery yesterday. Everyone had a great time and learned something new about salmon. A week ago today we went with the grade one class to the cultural centre ..that was where the art show took place. Last Friday we went to a french concert by bus at Truro Elementary. All of us learned new french songs! It was amazing!!!
Mrs.Lockerby finished reading the third book of Philip Roy's River Odyssey. The whole class loved it!
Class is working on an I spy book.....it should be fun!! We have now started the ABC countdown today is letter E- exercise day. Our class has a praying mantis eggs......! In gym we finished basketball !! Yay!

Mad Scientists!

Today we held a Science Fair in the gym with the grade 4 class. Mrs. Wall, our science teacher helped us get ready. We have been working hard for weeks. The other classes came to visit and ask questions between recess and lunch time. Our parents and the general public came in the afternoon. Our teachers were impressed with our explanations and conduct. We were very tired by the end of the day!
