charge of each field. This is our class pro-
ject for the Science Fair on March 31. We

their "Special Me" book that the class

St. Patrick's Day art work.

This class made some 2-D shape mobiles
out of pipe cleaners and straws.
Grade 6
Mrs. Tebbutt's Gr. '6 ,class wrapped up
their geometry unit wit a lesson on tessela-

pattern shapes by dividing a circle into the
desired angles; then used this pattern to
decorate a sheet of paper. When they add-
ed colour and lines, the art work looked
quite original.
The class had some help from Mrs.
Graham.

history with us.
A little later in the month, a number of

we are taking a little time to acquaint
ourselves with some "indepth" language
studies in the hope we can improve our
writing and communication skills.
