We Create Change Tour - Free the Children

Today we went to an assembly called We Create Change Tour - Free the Children. This tour is traveling across Canada to talk to Canadian Youth about how they can make a change. A musical group called Neverest performed some songs for us. They taught us their new song called Starlight which will be on the radio soon! Spencer West is a motivational speaker and author who is also on the tour. He told us about some of the amazing things in his life like walking from Edmonton to Calgary. He also climbed a mountain in Africa called Mount Kilimanjaro, this biggest mountain in Africa. He also told us about the story of how his had a disease when he was a baby and how the doctors removed his legs. He now gets around by wheelchair or by walking on his hands! How unbelieveable! Our friend Avery Skog started a huge fundraiser called Brick by Brick which raised more than $12000 to build a school in Kenya. Avery is awesome and we all supported him. Way to go Morris School!

Our igloo

We destroyed the igloo and I was in the igloo I belly flopped on the igloo. Now we have to get recycling bags.

by Logan

 

The igloo is no longer an igloo because of an incident that happened today. So the grade threes got back from french and the grade fours came back from music then someone said everyone hide from the teacher. So then everyone either went in the igloo or behind the igloo.so then Richclyde when he crawled in he kind of hit the igloo then Aylie hit the igloo then a little bit of the doorway collapsed then it all started collapsing on Haylee, Richclyde and Liam. and I am pretty sure they could all come out but they wanted to stay in. And me and Ethan were just watching everything fall on top of Haylee, Richclyde and Liam. Then everybody started attacking the igloo so then the igloo turned into a pile of milk jugs. Then Aylie and Haylee had to get recycling bags for us to clean up the milk jugs. So then we had 8 recycling bags filled with milk jugs. By: Andrew




Owl Pellets





We dissected owl pellets to find out what owls eat. We found bird and rodent skeletons. Owls cannot digest bones and fur so they have to throw it up. We watched a real owl on a video spitting up a pellet. It was gross.

     The first step we used the paper.

      The second step we used the pastels.

       The third step we smush  the pastels on a black  piece of paper.

        The fourth step we rip pieces of  paper  & then we glue it.

Inuit Research        By Martine


In class we are doing and finishing our Inuit research. Mine is about a Summer tent also known as the Tupiq. It's made from the bearded seal. It was also portable for travel. In the winter they would move into a sod house. It was built on ground not sea ice. They would skin the bearded seal then let it dry. It's not modern but it's old, strange, small, and rough. THE END
