You and your families are just the best - our whole class has returned their blue field trip forms! Hurray!
A different blue form went home yesterday about the Acadian celebration we are having on Friday. I will be making a traditional Acadian stew - vegetable fricot - that your child is welcome to enjoy during snack. Please return these blue forms first thing tomorrow morning if you would like your child to participate. This afternoon the class planted basil and lemon balm seeds in small peat containers. We are connecting this to the science curriculum of recognizing the importance of water to living and nonliving things and understanding that we have a responsibility to help maintain our supply of clean water. The students will water the seeds with fresh water and they should sprout in 1 to 2 weeks (hopefully). At the same time, we will observe the seeds that are watered with salt water to simulate what happens to plants that are near roads or storm drains in Calgary - where does all that salt from the winter go?! How does it affect plants? How do our lives shape the water? See you tomorrow :)
