Short Chain Subtraction

Matt faced the math challenge and conquered!  He used all of his cards in a subtraction chain game.  Way to go, Matt!

Playing with Light & Lenses

The boys warmed up for science by building an awesome Lego creation that moved! Levi then did an amazing review of how the eye works using a picture in one of his library books.

We then spent some time trying to figure out the mystery of the "broken" pencil. Refraction of light can be pretty interesting!

Next up were concave and convex lenses.....

And how they affect light as it passes through them.

My Soccer Star

Another successful soccer season has just finished and Bekah was awarded the "Most Aggressive" player. She was also commended for her leadership and positive attitude on and off the field. Way to go, Bekah!

Fun Times!

While Bekah was creating beautiful artwork at the Art Gallery with Mrs G and Dane ....

the rest of us had fun at Go Bananas (4 hours of running & playing) followed by an ice cream treat!

Fun Day Trip to Vancouver

Vegetable Art by Matt!

Even making a veggie platter can turn into a creative endeavor (don't you love the building-like structure in the center?!!!?)!

Weaving

We were reading about the beautiful weaving that the First Nations of the Plateau did and decided to give it a try!
