Our Amaryllis

Our Amaryllis Plant

We planted an amaryllis bulb in potting soil. We watered it. We made predictions about how it will grow. It measures 3 cm. 

Ian - I predict the amaryllis will grow 2 cm everyday.

Haylee - I predict the flowers will be light red.

Harshita - I think the amaryllis will grow 1 flower.

Emilie - I think the amaryllis will grow 1 flower.

Richclyde - I predict the amaryllis will grow 2 cm everyday.

Tate - I predict the flowers will be red.

Ginger - I predict the plant will get very big and possibly grow another plant.

Alex - I think it will grow only 1 flower and be 10 cm tall.

Ashton - I think it will grow 2 cm everyday.

Mikayla - I think it will be and it will have 12 petals. I think 2 flowers will grow.

This week at school we learned about how the stem is an important part of the plant. We put freshly cut carnations and celery into cups of water mixed with food coloring. Within two hours we noticed that both were changing really fast. We cut open the celery to see the tiny tubes inside that 

carry the water to the rest of the plant. The stem also holds up the plant. To learn more about plants we also watched a Bill Nye video. He told us about a plant that eats meat! It's the venus flytrap! He also explained why leaves change color in the fall. They stop making their own food for a while.

We finished our experiment this week. We learned that plants need water, sunlight and air to grow into a healthy plant.

My last football  practice we learned how to be an outside linebacker and an inside linebacker. At the Bombers field we had fun. Boomer and Buzz were there. I met players from the Bison, the Bombers and the Rifles. And my favourite player was a centre and he was playing quarterback. The numbers were number 5 and 12.

This Week at School....

We had a guest artist come to our class everyday. Margaret Shaw-McKinnon is an author and illustrator. She shared with us her books Crabbit, Pod the Wood Elf and Beech Nut. The first thing we did was draw faces for six different emotions. Then we talked about characters that we might want to put in our story. We chose a dog, a horse and a pig named Dr. Porkchop. It was funny how we decided to make them switch heads. Margaret's drawings were really good and funny. We all got to illustrate the pages in our own books.

Library Fundraiser

Drive one for a Ford Library Fundraiser


We received a cheque for $4060 for the Morris School library and the Valley Regional Library. People and parents came to the school to test drive a new Ford vehicle. Each vehicle driven raised $20. Over 200 people came in six hours. A student from each classroom will be chosen to go McNally Robinson to buy books for the school library. The public library will put their money in a fund for an extension on their library.
