Word of the day: authentic

The story writing test today went very well! The class produced wildly varying ideas on the picture prompt; everything from video games to gods and goddesses to the Pandora galaxy was featured as a theme - great reading!

Our next Provincial Achievement test is Thursday morning. We'll write the 2 minute timed math facts tests (for adding, subtracting, and multiplication) then.

Reminders:
1. Practise math facts from the Exam Bank link.
2. Check out the goose cam. The mother has left the nest with her single gosling and is not expected to return, but the cam is still trained on the nest. There is a link to a Youtube site showing the gosling, so check that out if you get a minute. And, as many of you know, the second hummingbird egg hatched last night! Some fun!

Switching from feather to fur now, I thought you might enjoy this video, called "All Kids Love Mud Puddles."
