Week 9

This week we have our class trip to the Early Settlers Museum. Thank you to all parent help, without you we are not able to have these fabulous experiences.

This week we are working hard on our ASPIRE topic. Our overall question is: How are we shaped by our past?
This is leading us to brainstorm and discuss smaller questions we can ask and find answers to. A big part of this ASPIRE is to write interview questions as a method of gathering information. We tend to rely on internet and Google to find answers, when often asking good open-ended questions to an expert can give you far better information.
This was the basis for last week's homework: to write 5 open ended questions to ask me about my childhood. The class interviewed me on Friday. There were some challenging questions!

Look for some camp recounts over the next couple of weeks as well as some more camp photos. If you have a chance come in to see our now completed camp display.
