We are hard at work preparing for our learning assembly on Wednesday December 19th at 3pm!
In Social Studies, students are making a comparison between life in Alberta in 1718 and 2018, with an emphasis on food, clothing, shelter, people, and the natural area.
In Math we are exploring arrays to help our understanding of multiplication. Below is a copy of the assessment that students are using for these assignments to follow each step.
