Wow, this was a busy and exciting week!
On Wednesday we went on our field trip to the Sooke Region Museum. There was so much to see and learn! We were able to tour the museum and see some of the artifacts, meet Ms. Tilly in her cottage and learn how she runs her home, we were even able to make butter! Our hard work tasted delicious on crackers!

This week we started our socials studies unit, looking at life in early Canada. We brainstormed reasons people moved to Canda, filled out our immigration paper work, took a sneak peak into an immigration office, and met some children on a train who had just moved to Canada. We were even able to act out dreams and nightmares we think the early settlers may of had. Do you know the reasons your ancestors may have moved to Canada? Where did they come from? Have they always lived in Canada?
In language arts we finished up our planet advertisements and spent time with a partner, practicing and perfecting our commercials. On Friday, we performed and recorded our commercials so that our classmates could also learn more about all the planets we have been studying.

Friday afternoon was very exciting! We had our junior astronomer badge award ceremony, everyone was very excited to recieve their badge! As a surprise we were able to practice story telling again with puppets! We practiced making up characters with personalities and voices for our puppets. We also worked with our partners to make up stories to share with our classmates. It was a great way to finish off the week!
I hope you are all enjoying your March Break, I'm looking forward to hearing about all your adventures when we come back to school. Happy Easter!
