Tremendous Thursday!

Caribou contest

The next Caribou contest will be taking place Wednesday, February 26th, 2020. Students are to arrive at 7:15 am for a 7:30 am start. They should bring their own charged devices.
The interactive question for Grades 2-10 will be Bomb Defuser and for Grade 11/12 it will be GeomeTree requiring a construction involving lines and circles. Because Caribou’s GeomeTree site can be used to solve the interactive question, this site will be blocked at noon on Tuesday, February 25^th. Both interactive questions are accessible from Caribou’s Games/History page.

Contact Caribou directly if you have any problems with the games.

There will be no history question

We began the day with Math. We went over our math review to check for understanding.

We then reflected on our strengths and areas of improvement and picked specific activities that have shown both. 

Next, we worked on a researching project related to our PEPS connections to the rest of the world. Today we focused on our connection to the United States related to PEPS aspects. Students researched about the political, economic, physical and social aspects of each country. Next week we will compare the information between both countries and find how we are connected to the United States.

After first recess and lunch we had French.

Then we had our secret friend reveal party, revealing who our secret friend was and playing some games. We had so much fun!!!

Have a wonderful family day long weekend!
