Hello!

Today we:
  • learned all about patterns in nature! We learned about someone named ?Leonardo Fibonacci who was a mathematician and he realized all kinds of neat things about math - specifically, he learned about patterns in nature. We practiced the "Fibonacci Sequence" in many ways today, including a visual representation - see photos blow. Ask me to explain this pattern: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, etc. 
  • did literacy work for our reading groups
  • learned more about New France and the fur trade (we made a mind map and acted out a mini-play) - see photos blow. 
  • brought out our circuits for an experiment about insulators and conductors - see photos below! Ask me to tell you the difference between insulators and conductors.
Reminders:
  • May 11th - Family Math Night -- please see Mrs. Brinson's email from earlier this week all about it! There will be games, food trucks, etc.

 Welcome! We are so excited to be starting the 2022-2023 year!  This year, our whole school will continue to use Blogger to make our daily agenda posts. To make it easier for you, you can add the blog right on to the home screen of your phone or iPad by following the directions on the “Adding Blogger to Home Screen” document Mrs. Brinson sent out on August 26 in her first Northern Lights News email. We hope this makes the communication between home and school easier and opens up great conversations between you and your child. The CBE and Mrs. Brinson will be communicating information to you through School Messenger. To make sure you receive these email messages, please SUBSCRIBE using the email address that the school has on file. (If you change your email address, you must inform the school and then re-subscribe or the system won’t work.)
