Lots of painting and Learning about Latitude and Longitude!










On Friday, the children created stunning paintings of their interpretation of the Emily Carr quote: "A British Columbia way of seeing.". We had a lively class discussion on what the quote might mean and the boys and girls enjoyed talking about their ideas based on their own individual "British Columbia way of seeing".





















In Social Studies, we have been learning about latitude and longitude and using coordinates to find positions on a map. The boys and girls enjoy our class competitions on the SmartBoard to see which team can locate countries on the world map using coordinates.

Some reminders:

-TOMORROW (Thursday 24th September) is Meet the Teacher Evening at 6:30pm

-School Photo Orders are due back by Friday

-The Terry Fox Run at Wentworth is Friday (*children to come to school in PE clothes as per normal on Friday with uniform to change into)
