Our school looked crazy with the funky hairdos this morning.
Ms. Malan judged students to place them in first, second, and third place. The
school body enjoyed a house game while the grade 3 and 4 students headed out
for a trip to Mountsberg.
It was a very cold day to be outside, but we survived.
Students may be a bit more tired than usual tonight.
During our trip, we learned how maple trees have to be a
certain diameter to be tapped for sap. We saw a dugout that was used by First
Nations to boil sap, and large kettles used by pioneers. We hear a legend of
how the First Nations may have discovered that the sap of Maples can be used
for syrup.
We visited the Sugar Shack where the evaporator is used to
boil the sap down. In the shack, students were treated to a sample of maple
syrup, that everybody enjoyed.
After lunch we visited a play barn and got to see farm
animals like horces, sheep, chickens, rabbits, and goats. Students especially
enjoyed seeing the bunnies and kids that were only a couple of weeks old.
Back at school we did light work as everyone was tires.
Students completed all their spelling list for List 28 - Spell singular
possessive nouns and contractions: she’ll, wouldn’t, they’ll, how’s, let’s,
