Welcome back! We have had a great start to 2015 in the grade 5/6 classroom! We have been busy starting a new writing unit as well as a new Science unit. In writing we are working on descriptive writing skills – these skills will aid us in our Social Studies and Science research and inquiry projects coming up. In Science we are starting a unit on Extreme Environments. I have some pictures below of the students using different pictures of extreme environments to ask questions and make observations. Looking forward to both of these units!
