What did we learn today?
  • In language arts, we have been learning about similes and metaphors.  We know that similes have "like" or "as" in them, but metaphors need just a comparison.  We watched a funny video by the Bazillions to explain it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uoSBVNUO2LU
  • Today for Fresh Air Friday, we did not go outside because it was too cold.  So we did an activity where we made a zipline for an elf on the shelf.  Then we tested them with a crayon stuffie.
  • For social studies, we watched a video about Calgary between 1961-1980.  Then we got into groups and were given a question about our community to brainstorm answers about, such as,"Where do people go in our community to feel good?" and "Why do people live in Brentwood?"
  • Yesterday in gym we did hockey again.  We played dribble keep away where three people tried to keep the puck away from the one defender.
