Thursday, June 11, 2021 Coulee Walk Day

Welcome to the second last Thursday of this school year!


Our Coulee Walks continue to be a highlight of the week.  All three groups went to a new location:

Mr. Kai's Class went to below the Sunning Buffalo and to the tipi circle with Mrs. Bowles.  We noticed a few things that the other groups didn't - the stream is really low and there are millions of ants in the coulee.





Mrs. Bowles' Class went to the Duck Pond. We went on a wetland scavenger hunt and read the book, Looking Closely Around the Pond. We saw a baby duck. No muskrat this time.





Mrs. Campbell's Class went to the lower coulee. We sat in our sit spots and investigated nature around us.



Having the opportunity to see different locations and learn about each of them with our own set of eyes and and the perspective that we are focusing on during our in class learning.


We have all started a TOP SECRET Project that the students will be bringing home tomorrow.

 Happy Thursday Peace Group Learners and Families This is my first official blog after returning to Eric Harvie School full-time.   My apologies for missing the blog yesterday. Transitions can be a challenge. Today was a packed day full of learning for all of the Peace Group.  All of the students continue to work on developing their writing. We are all working on "Walking Stories" these are stories that are about themselves. We have focused on our memories.  A "Walking Story's" main character is the student. It is all about a person, place or thing that your child knows a lot about.  We have been using a variety of planning techniques. The students are also learning how to revise their writing by adding "Triple Scoop" words, interesting details and looking at using our "No Excuse" word lists for editing. Math has been exciting and engaging for the students.  Mr. Kai and Mrs. Bowles' group continue their work on graphing.  Today we looked
