Inquiry

This week the students wrapped up their Arctic inquiries when we tested our futuristic Arctic Structures to see if they could survive the rising sea levels and increased flooding.

 Next week we are beginning our inquiry into the maritimes through an Acadian community, as well as exploring buoyancy and eventually building and testing boats. Our class will be looking at these ideas through the community of Lunenburg in Nova Scoatia.

Literacy

Along with our study of maritime and acadian communities, we have started a new novel study with L.M. Montgomery's Anne of Green Gables

Math

This week we finished up our shape and space unit comparing and defining 2D and 3D shapes. Next week we continue to explore number lines and specifically using number lines to subtract.

Jump Rope For Heart

Hello ROS students, parents and guardians!

Our Heart and Stroke Foundation Jump Rope For Heart Fundraiser is well on its way. Our kick off assembly last week got students excited to participate. Students are encouraged to continue collecting pledges until Wednesday, April 25th when we will have our Jump Rope for Heart Day event. The Jump Event will run from 1:30-2:30 on the 25th, our entire school will converge in the courtyard to skip, be active and have fun. Students are encouraged to bring their own skipping ropes if they have one to participate in this school wide event. Thank you for your continued support!!
