Question of the night: What place and problem are you researching for our waste project?
Hello all!! We had a great day of learning today. We started this morning with our historian timeline. We studied the dates that we each have that are relevant to Calgary's history, then we put them in ascending order. We'll work together over the next couple of days to place each of them on the timeline. After that, we worked on our fatberg project. Well, not exactly just the fatberg, but our research project on a problem that might affect a Calgary place or business. For example, we brainstormed about a waste problem that the Lake Bonavista hockey arena might have: Arena --> concession that sells food --> Sells Chicken Wings --> the wings come on a paper plate --> lots of paper plates go in the garbage. So, in our final study of waste and our world, we've been challenged with focusing on a place in calgary, and a waste problem they may have. We'll them look at the problem, then try to solve it, from beginning to end, and maybe come up with a better solution. For math, we're really gearing up our mental math work on multiplication. Some of us finished our final area and perimeter assessment, while others worked on playing multiplication squares - always a favourite in our class. In the afternoon, we visited with Mrs. Dennill, then Mrs. Cornford, then had our grade 2 buddies teach us a new math game. (Here's your secret message...Whisper "Fatberg" to Mr. V tomorrow morning for 2 super student tickets). It was a really fun game, and it involved alot of mental math too, addition and subtraction, in this case. Have a great night! ____________________________________________________ The POWerful Book Club will be meeting at lunch on Tuesday December 5. Student’s should bring their lunch and their book.

I am researching styrofoam. We use it for packaging. The problem is that it can't decompose. I'm trying to come up with an eco-friendly substance that can replace styrofoam.
