Bees & Homework

There is math homework for both grades:

Gr. 5:  Show these three numbers using 1s, 10s, 100s, and 1000s shapes (due W):
a)  302
b)  1223
c)  3050

Gr. 6: Read pp 46, 47, and top of 48; take notes if you feel it would be helpful (also due W)

Art got underway with Mrs. Martin today. Come Thursday night to Meet the Teacher and see what she did with the class!

It was a sunny afternoon, so we got outside to "Gerry's Garden" where the bees were happily feeding in the warm sunshine. We sketched flowers and later added a bit of colour.


In the top picture you should be able to spot at least one bee, and in the bottom picture, while it may look like a bunch of greenery, if you look closely near the centre you should see a fat orb spider in his web. Zoom in and see!

In the video below, there are at least 3 individuals from two species of bees active this afternoon.
