Meet MILO! We have had two STEM lab classes with our coding instructors to build and then program Milo.
And meet the fish eggs! We have begun learning about aquariums and the life cycle of a Rainbow Trout. The eggs are already changing!

Jan. 23
Ms. Sally from Teacher's Pet came in to teach us about Tunisia. We had 4 different stations that we worked at. There was a board game with trivia questions about Tunisia and a money game where we learned about Tunisia's imports, exports, services (and practiced our skip counting and addition!). We learned that Tunisian money is called dinars. We also learned about rights and that we all have rights to speak and act freely. At another station, Ms. Sally showed us Tunisian artifacts like oil bottles and fabrics. Many things were made out of olive wood because they have a lot of that type of tree in Tunisia. At one station we learned about Tunisian mosaics and got to make one of our own! At the end, Ms. Sally read us a story called Galimoto where a boy made a neat toy out of scrap wires. She brought a Galimoto with her! We talked about how we could make a toy at home (instead of always buying new ones). Jan. 17 was Kid Inventor Day! We worked with our grade 7 buddies to create something that would improve life (in our school, home, or community). We used upcycled plastic. On the Monday and Tuesday before K.I.D., we got to plan and design with our buddies. We also learned about plastic and how it pollutes our landfills and water. We built all morning on Wed. Jan 17th and then got to eat popsicles (a kid invention)!
