The Freezie Challenge of 2020

Highlights from today:

  • we wrote our first draft of our animal article about how animals survive in the winter (Chasity)
  • we made our own 2-D shape art (Drayden)

  • in science, we built our first device to keep freezies cold (Alivia) ... testing begins on Monday
      • we will build a second one after we've built the first one and learned what went well and what we should improve (Jaxon)
    • we build our insulating devices today. On Monday we will test to see if our prototypes can successfully keep a freezie frozen. (Xaviera)
    • In Math, we were working on calculating the cents it would cost to build shape pictures. For example, a rectangle cost 25 cents and a triangle cost 1 cent, a square cost 5 cents, a circle cost 10 cents.  (Rana)
    • In PE we got to play "Airhockey" and "9 square. In 9 square the team in the 9th square gets to start with the ball every time. It is tricky because it is easy to get out. Abem was my partner and we got to go in the middle twice and stayed for 3 turns.  I got 100 points in air-hockey. It was really fun! (Avery)
    • Mrs. Seymour and Mrs. Cose's class get an extra special reading incentive for during the Read-a-Thon. Students will track their minutes read starting on Monday, March 9th. For every 20 minutes read, students will earn a trading card. Students got to pick between Calgary Flames trading cards and Canadian Wildlife trading cards (Corbin)... BONUS! If you earn all the cards on your category, you can earn bonus cards from the other category.
