Tuesday October 8th, 2019

Highlights:

• We had music and gym today!
• We continued our math project about the trees around Calgary using the city of Calgary website.  We discovered that some of the trees do not have the value listed so we needed to phone 311 for information regarding the missing value.  Tomorrow we will need to contact an Arborist to determine the value of those unknown trees.  Any estimations?
• Today was day 4 of Literacy Stations.  We touched base discussing specifically what we like about Literacy Stations and at what stage we should be at as we will be rotating to a new station hopefully early next week.  
• We continued with our page about Ugly using the Visual Note-Taking skills we learned yesterday.  We watched a quick video showing us how we could organize our work.

• We ended our day with a Social Studies Challenge where the students had to work together to come up with a plan on how to survive on a remote island.  We will continue with this task.
