Friday and "Open House"

What an amazing school year start-up we have been having at LBS! Typically, at this time of year, we host Parent Teacher Conferences in an Open House format. With restrictions due to Covid-19, our format has been adjusted. This year, each class has created a video to introduce families to our school, answer commonly asked questions and show details of how our class works. These videos will be released on Thursday, September 23, 2021 at 4:00 pm. If you have questions after viewing the video, please reach out. We are certainly missing seeing families in our school building and look forward to future opportunities where this may be possible.  

Terry Fox Run Tomorrow

 Hello Families!

This is a reminder that we will be participating in the Terry Fox Run tomorrow afternoon. Please make sure to send a water bottle to school as it is supposed to be warm tomorrow.

Thanks!

Week 3

 Hello Families,

Our community walk was a success! It was so nice to leave the school grounds and explore other public spaces within the Lake Bonavista community. We explored Wapta Park, where we did a sit spot examining the strengths and areas of improvement of this public space. We also looked at the connection to the environment and the community.

We completed our Alberta and Canada Maps. We have been discussing Capital Cities, Provinces, and Territories. Next, we will be exploring different regions within Alberta and Canada, their geographic features, and how they contribute to our identity.

Students have been using our Montessori Pin Maps as a responsible work choice and an extension of our work in Social Studies.

We have began our class read aloud, The One and Only Ivan. 

In Math, we continue or work with graphing.
