Good afternoon!

What a busy day we had today! Due to the weather forecast for today, we opted not to go on our Wetlands walk. We will still be taking our walk, we will just be waiting until it is a little bit dryer! Instead we worked on some Social Studies. Today we completed an activity about the famous 5! Students learned about Emily Murphy, Louise McKinney, Nellie McClung, Henrietta Muir Edwards, and Irene Parlby, and some of the contributions that they made to women’s rights in Canada! Check out the links below if you want to keep exploring this topic at home. Remember the second link has some puzzles and activities.

Please don’t forget to return all permission forms as soon as possible! While it looks likely that our Heritage Park trip will be cancelled, I still want the forms just in case!
