L.A./Health

Be prepared to begin a book project/author study next week.

We worked on our online research for our Souper Stars related health project. Some of our topics are online safety, nutrition, etiquette and physical activity. Next week we will finish up this project and share information with each other.

We continued on the Tale of Despereaux and created character maps for some of the secondary characters in the story like Princess Pea, Uncle and Gregory the jailer. We chose specific character trait adjectives for each character and supported our choices with evidence from the novel. We also wrote a detailed prediction for what we think will happen in the last part of the book.

Science

We carefully read and analyzed science cartoons to highlight some of the important facts and issues from our Wetlands study.

Social

We created review pages for each of our regions including:

-       Physical Characteristics
-       Location in Canada on the map (which provinces)
-       Plants/Animals
-       Natural Resources
What makes this region special
