Thank you to all of our families who took the time to meet with us for Parent Teacher Conferences. It was lovely to connect with you and share about your child's growth and learning.

The students were excited to move into our unit on floor hockey in physical education. We have so many students who are involved in hockey outside of school. It was nice for them to have a chance to share their interest and skill with the class. This week we worked on skills such as stick handling, passing and shooting. Next week, we will move into playing games.

Our focus was on the learning outcome; students participate in a variety of physical activities that develop various components of physical fitness.

The grade fours had a fantastic time during our netball residency this week. It is such a wonderful, fast paced game. Each of the seven players has a following position which helps it to be a true team sport where all players are active and engaged. It allowed students to work on their passing and shooting skills. Thank you to our Parent Council for making this opportunity possible.

This week, we were so happy to have the opportunity to visit Fish Creek Provincial Park. We feel very fortunate to have such an amazing natural space within walking distance from our school. Exploring the park is a wonderful fit to our learning in social studies on the different geographic regions of Alberta. Our focus was on the the outcomes: examining the physical geography of Alberta and how Albertans interact with their environment. As the day was a little chilly, it also gave us the opportunity to think what life was like for Alberta's Indigenous people and its early settlers.

In science, the students have been motivated as they have been researching a variety of methods of waste disposal including, landfills, recycling, windrow composting, and incineration. They learned about how their method worked as well as the advantages and disadvantages. The students then began creating Google Slides to represent their learning. Next week, the students will share their slides with the class. Our learning focus was: describe alternate methods of waste disposal and identify advantages and disadvantages of each and locate information to answer research questions using a variety of sources.

Fantastic Fours
