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.

Please explore the pictures below and invite your child to share a little about the activities and their learning.

This connected nicely to our social studies curriculum and the outcome; recognize how stories of people and events provide multiple perspectives on past events. The students created works of art connected to their learning.
