T.W.A.S.

This week at school:

In Art - we made a flag of the country we studied using pointillism (dot art).
In Inquiry - we finished making our 3D maps of the 4 countries (plus 1 province - Alberta).  We have also been examining quality of life in different countries.  We read two stories about children, one from North America and one from Brazil.  We decided that the child from Brazil actually had a better of quality of life because he had a close family, he had wholesome food, and.  The 4 main areas for quality of life are: safety and security, comfort, happiness, and health.
In math, we have started learning about fractions.  Fractions are like division because we are splitting into groups. 

Next Week:
