Monster Book Marks- Pay It Forward!

Today our class was very excited as we made our “Monster Bookmarks”.  Miss Y had all our special paper and art materials for us to create our very own Monster bookmarks.  They look so colourful that we will never lose a page in our books again!

We really enjoyed making the bookmarks as we knew that our gold coin would be helping Miss Y to buy books for Miss Wilkinson who teaches in Bangladesh.  We know how much we love reading books at our school and it would be nice for other children to be able to have books too.  You can read about the other things happening in our Library for Paying It Forward.

Thank you Miss Y for helping us to make a difference!  Take a look at our creations!

How have you helped other people in the world?

 

Forces and Simple Machines!

Today we learned about simple machines and how we can move them using force. 

We learned about wheels and axles, inclined planes, wedges, screws, and pulleys.  It was a great afternoon because we loved all the hands on work.  It was interesting seeing what everyone else came up with!  

We may be able to use this information to help us with a Big Question for our own “Discovery”!
