Field Trip Fun & Thank You to Our Drivers Our Port Coquitlam field trip was successful despite the rainy weather. A huge thank you to Nolan, Sophia, Lilac, and Frazer’s families for driving and volunteering. The students had a fantastic morning learning more about Terry Fox—exploring the statues, viewing his artificial leg and other memorabilia, and tracing his journey along the boardwalk, not to mention the cool playground. Both classes were attentive and respectful listeners during our visit to the library and were excited to learn about the summer reading program. Information on how to join will be coming home in planners on Monday—please be sure to check the secret pouch. Summer reading is very important to help students maintain the skills they have worked so hard to develop throughout the year.
Spelling Update
Spelling is officially finished for the year; however, we will be redoing the first week of the review. I realized that I accidentally repeated Lesson 11, so I’d like to give students another opportunity to practise the correct review words.
Students will record these words in their planners on Monday, and the quiz will take place on Friday as usual. I believe this extra practice will be beneficial for everyone.
Spelling duotangs will be coming home and can remain at home for the remainder of the year.

SFU Science Alive Workshop (Div. 13)
Our class is fortunate to have the SFU Science Alive STEM team visit us for their “Turning Up the Heat” workshop. This engaging session ties directly into our Science and ADST curriculum. Students will explore thermal energy through hands-on experiments and discover: how heat causes liquids to rise, how gases expand and how objects change with temperature. There is no cost for this workshop (normally $5.00), as it will be covered by our class funds.
