HARRISON By Jeremy Leishman We will be doing a naturalization of the school yard project and have applied to the Shell Environmental Fund for some money. Some of the activities will be planting trees and shrubs and building bluebird boxes. "We will make a butterfly garden and let the grass and weeds grow" says principal, Mr.Al Harrison. By doing this we hope to attract birds, insects, butterflies and other small creatures. Children will use this area for their science classes. We will be installing a creative playground on the primary side next spring. We are raising the money in co-operation with the School Advisory Council."

Each of us does a novel response on the 14th and 28th of each month, and a book talk once every month. In math this year it’s been mainly review, division, addition, subtraction, multiplication and all these with decimals. We have also been doing order of operations and exponents, and are just beginning measurement and parts of a circle. Science has been great! Our main unit for the first part of the year is astronomy, and so far we have studied the beginning of the universe and telescopes. Our class took a trip to the ROM to learn more about the universe, and to look at some of the exhibits. We have written various essays about books we have read, movies we have seen and quite a few other topics. We have been learning how to write paragraphs and how to break up words. Also, we do a journal entry once in a while. In art we have illustrated our art portfolios and drawn name totems. We have been learning how to shade with pastels and how to overlap large objects in a picture. While doing all of this, we have been fundraising for the Quebec trip. We would like to extend a warm handshake to all the parent volunteers who are helping out with the trip. Some of the fundraising projects we've had are: a beef on a bun booth at the Steam c^plr°zKEB TWIN CINEMA [ | SURROUND SOUND STEREO~~| M LISTOWEL 291-3070 STARTS FRIDAY CINEMA 1 7 & 9:15 (AA) THE PEACEMAKER GEORGE CLOONEY, _________NICOLE KIDMAN_________ CINEMA 2 7 PM (aa) THE EDGE ANTHONY HOPKINS, ALEC BALDWIN 9:15 p.m. (aa) L.A.
