Terry Fox Run

Despite the chilly weather, Hawkwood students participated in the Terry Fox Run today. Following the run, the class brainstormed character traits Terry Fox possessed and reflected on how he is a Canadian hero. Students used words and textures to make an art piece in the shape of a shoe.

This week students began research on wetland plants and animals. The goal was to find out what adaptations make them suited to this environment. Students applied their knowledge of place value to identify mystery numbers based on clues. They also compared numbers to determine which was greater. In Social Studies, the kids learned about the purpose of latitude and longitude and how to use it to identify specific locations. During French, students reviewed vocabulary and phrases around months and days. The Language Arts focus was using the five senses to describe a scene. We will continue with this work into next week.
