Their next step is to make an invention themselves. Perhaps a Grade 7 class of the future will be researching some of these students as "famous inventors." GRADE 8 Grade 8s organized a winterfest activity day on Friday, March 1. Students participated in tug-o-war, snowshoeing, snowboard and mountain climbing relays to name a few. The weather cooperated with a fresh snowfall and everyone had a ball. Thank you Grade 8 and Mr. Harrison. GRADE 2 Mrs. Armstrong-Gibson's Grade 2 class has been learning about eggs this past month. The children have been conducting research on eggs and birds, writing related stories on the computers and publishing these stories, experi­ menting with eggs and learning about the development of a chick from the egg stage. The most exciting part of this unit was actually incubating eggs and then watching them hatch on February 24.
