Welcome back! It has been awhile since we have added anything to the site, but with Spring around the corner the class thought it was time to update.
We have already begun asking questions:
Ayesa: How many toes does an elephant have?
Jesse: Why do monkeys like climbing trees?
Pratheeksha: How many trees does a rainforest have?
Munir: How does a cheetah run fast? What is faster than a cheetah?
Aanas: How many types of snakes are in the rainforest?
Sawda: Why do tigers have stripes?
With our focus on the rainforest we are also examining numbers we see in the rainforest as well as the numbers we see in the everyday (Ex: what numbers do we see on the TTC? How many red cars will pass us on our walk home? How many eggs did I eat this week?) Please support your student at home by asking them to look for and write down numbers when they see them
Here is a fun site we just discovered that has many great games for your child to try at home (look for the wild animal game in the science section):

Read everyday and have fun learning!
Mr. Grady and Ms. Richa
