Homework for the extra long weekend!

1. Students are coming home with their CBE email information. Students have been sent questions that they have been instructed to ask you. We are beginning to learn more about heating systems and would like to kick it off by having students learn more about these systems within their homes. We will bring back this information after the break and share our learning. Please support your child with accessing their email and filling out the questions being asked. Thank you for supporting our learning!

2. We need your help! Students in grade two are helping Mrs. Brar and Mrs. Scherschel keep their icy cold smoothie from melting! Our brilliant students have accepted the task of designing a container to help keep her smoothie from melting as quickly. To help them with this task, we are asking families to send in common household items such as: 
   - aluminum foil
   - plastic
   - newspaper
   - cling wrap
   - wax paper
   - cardboard
   - bubble wrap
   - anything else you think may be a good insulator! 

Please note, we are not asking families to purchase these items, but rather, gather items they are willing to part with from around the house. We will be collecting items from Tuesday, February 20th until Friday, February 23rd. Thank you for supporting our learning!
