Sometimes We Do Not Need Microscopes . . .

Last week we used microscopes to get a closer look at an ecosystem right outside our school. We took water samples from a small drainage ditch and could see living microorganisms inside! These biotic beings were quick but many of us were able to get a closer look. Today, we will learning about an ecosystem that is rapidly changing right before our eyes - no microscope necessary. The beaches along Lake Winnipeg have drastically changed over the winter. Due to an invasive species, home and cottage owners are finding that after the snow melted, their once beautiful sandy beaches are full of millions and millions of mussels.

Earth Day, Everyday!

This years's Earth Day takes place on April 22nd, 2018, but what we really need to focus on what we can do EVERY DAY. This year's theme for Earth Day is to reduce plastic/Styrofoam waste. Today we will watch a video about students in Hawaii who are looking to make a difference, then we will write about what we can do.  Finally we will share our message with the school by making some 3 dimentional art to grab the attention of fellow students.
