We have been Teaming about farm animals and have made our own books about these animals to share with others. We have been busy learning our numbers and letters so we will be ready for Grade 1. The Grade 1 class had lots of interesting discoveries on their trip to Maitland Conservation area. In our steam study we found many water creatures, and enjoyed the chance to get wet. Nature games helped us to realize 'how hard animals have to work to find food. Thanks to all the parents who came on our trip. Ribbit! The Grade 1 and 2 have been hopping busy studying frogs and toads. We had many froggy friends in our class to study. Math and Dr. Suess centres are fun too. Our trip to West Wawanosh was really great We went to the opening of Family Treasures at the Bruce County Museum in Southampton. Grade 5/6 came too. (by Michael Grist and Susan Guay, Grade 2.) We all wore our sneakers on Friday for fitness week. On Wed- nesday, May 26 we had our Track & Field day. Some athletes go to Kincardine. We have been studying Inuit life past and present in research groups. Starpower has made a difference in our classroom: We have learned to use "I care" language to solve our problems.(written by Ian Tyler, Jeff Weber) Students are continuing to work hard in Grade 4/5. We have been practicing daily for track and field. We have some excellent athletes and good sports in our class. We are currently writing ABC books on sports, learning about working with decimals and studying about Bruce County. Grade 5/6 finalized their year- long Family Treasure project by visiting the Bruce Cqunty Museum. The students had the opportunity to view books and tapes from other schools that also participated in this special unit. Alicia Thacker and Jayme Sutherland had the oppor- tunity to be interviewed on T.V. Everyone agrees the Family Treasure unit was wonderful and they havea better appreciation for artifacts. After training for track and field the Grade 6/7 had many successful athletes from our class in our track meet on Wednesday. The YAC is June 2 in Chesley. The represen- tatives from our class are Becky Visser and Rachael Bushell. For about the past three weeks students have been bringing in their pets. It has been most enjoyable. The Grade 7/8 have started a new unit in English entitled "Media." In this unit they will be researching and discussing such topics as realis- tic and unrealistic programs, media violence and the various fortns and effects of advertising. Grade 8 has finished their studies of movement, mobility and migration in Geography and are starting a study of tourism, which will include choosing a destination outside North America and making all the necessary plans to take a trip to this location. Congratulations to all 7/8 students on their participation and good sportsman like conduct at track and -field. Who are we? Where did we come from? How are we different today than we were 100 years ago? These are the types of questions, we are investigating in our most recent English/history unit of study. Canada is a nation of immigrants. The nature of our ethnic make-up is continually in flux. . Today 19 authors from LCPS are attending the Young Author's Con- ference in Chesley. It is a great opportunity to meet an author and be involved in a creative workshop. Congratulations to all track and field athletes who received ribbons and a, special thank you to Mrs. Mayer for organizing a very suc- cessful track meet. On Friday, May 28 LCPS par- ticipated in Sneaker Day. Each class completed a sneaker challenge and learned about heart rates, and the importance of warm-up and cool -down stretches. Arthur W.
