Tuesday Update

Today we joined the other grade 4 and 5 students at Tillicum and across the district to watch an amazing performance of the Victoria Symphony directed by Maestra Tania Miller. The one hour show featured a talking time machine that took us back into the history of the symphony from its humble beginnings as a brass church performance, with four instruments, to the modern full orchestra with drums and percussion. Some of our students got to play recorders along with the symphony and our school performers, having learned the piece off by heart with Mrs. Awalt, stood out for their skills in front of all the other schools.

Assigned today:
Science: A one page report on the job of meteorologist
Math: page 202 on picking the appropriate time measurement. For example, if you were talking about how long ago the first settlers came to Canada, would you use seconds, min, hours, days, weeks, months, years, decades, centuries or millenniums?

The students continued to work on their Valentines day mini-book which will act as an outline for their "All school Write" topic to be written on Thursday.
