Dear Mom and Dad:
Mrs. McEvoy’s class worked with an artist from the Leighton
Art center in the morning. Ask me to tell you what kind of art we did.
Mrs. Ly and Ms. Deobald’s class had a baby visit today for
Roots of Empathy. Ask me to tell you some of the differences I saw in our baby
since their last visit.
We learned a lot about Nunavut and came up with some wonder
questions. We realized that we were able to answer some of the questions
already through some research and reading information.
We had dance today with Mrs. Janelle. Our Mount Royal
Student teachers are back today! They were with us before the winter break in the
mornings and now they will be joining us every afternoon on Thursdays.
Ask me to tell you what I did in word work today. We each
got into our groups.
Question of the day: Why does the sun set at 3 pm in Nunavut
but later in Calgary?
Love,
The Rainbow Triad
Housekeeping:
These are our new words for the week:
Grade 1: down, find, for, funny, go
Grade 2: best, both, call, cold, does
Please go over these words with me. I should be able to find
these words in books and the environment and spell the words as well.
Please sign the report card envelopes and return it back to
the school with your child. Thank you.
Jack: Because the earth moves around so the sun goes down at different times.
ReplyDeleteOwen E - Because the Earth is spinning around the sun.
ReplyDeleteLexi says because the Earth is orbiting the sun!
ReplyDeleteKaitlyn says because of the way the earth tilts- Nunavut tilts onto the darker spot earlier.
ReplyDeleteGracelyn says because the earth spins.
ReplyDeleteIt is because of the way that the earth it tilted, we get more sunlight than they do.
ReplyDeleteLincoln says we get more sun because we are lower than Nunavut
ReplyDeleteAva says:because the earth tilts and Nunavet is in the dark part farther away from away from the sun.
ReplyDeleteAaron says- The earth moves around the sun. The sun appears first in Nunavut than Calgary and so the sun sets first in Nunavut too.
ReplyDeleteTori "the earth moves around the sun so it moves away from Nunavut first then Calgary"
ReplyDeleteRiley says the sun stays put and the earth rotates in our solar system
