Science Gallery Field Trip

Today our class went on a field trip to the Manitoba Museum. We had a great time learning about science and having fun playing the amazing little science games. First we went into a room behind the curtain, we learned about chemical and physical changes! The guy that was helping us was named Sean. He showed us some neat experiments… One of them involved a diaper! Also one of them involved a rocket, sort of…  After that we got to explore the science gallery! Two of the things me and Brooke liked were… I liked the Mirror maze/room. Brooke liked the movie maker. There are two other things I liked were the pulley chairs and the space simulator etc. It was super fun!

Festival du Voyageur!

We had amazing weather for our field trip today. It was so awesome to be able to spend the day outside enjoying the Festival du Voyageur. We hope you had a great day. Here are some highlights of our field trip.

Wow it was an amazing Christmas concert! I can’t wait to tell you about it. I saw the other class perform on Tuesday. It was awesome. I think they did so well. The next day on Wednesday we had ours. It was good. I was the person at the front handing out the programs with Alyssa. I liked it and I think Alyssa liked doing that too. But we had a system. it was when I handed out one I said welcome the great hall and Alyssa would say enjoy the concert then if she handed out one she would say welcome to the great hall and I would say enjoy the concert. And then the concert came on it was amazing!

Its field trip time. For our field trip we made hampers. We packed one hamper for a family of two one little boy and one mom. We put food toys, mittens, spider man P.J’s. Then we made some boxes so they don’t look so plain. I enjoy doing that for people to get a Christmas like me.
 

Now its little buddies my favourite. My little buddy was not there till we had to leave sadly but I got Brookes buddy Maxx. It’s funny my buddies name is Maddox and Brookes is Maxx. It’s cute but I still got to read to a buddy. They are so cute. I’m glad he’s my buddy.

Lower Fort Garry Field Trip

Today we went on our field trip to Lower Fort Garry. We sure were lucky to have the weather hold out for us.......no rain! What a great day of learning. Thanks Ms Wasney for making the arrangements! It was so much fun for all the grade 5's to spend the day together. Enjoy our video to see the highlights of our trip!

 

Music Festival.........G O L D!

Hello Room 30 readers, today we went to the Music Festival! The songs we sang were Over the Sea to Skye and The Old Carrion Crow. We sang Over the Sea to Skye first then the Old Carrion Crow after. In the adjudicators review she said we rushed a little bit, but she liked the song and performance overall. There were three places, Gold, Silver and Bronze. Guess what we got…… *GOLD*, when we heard on the bus we got gold we were so amazed, everyone was cheering with astonishment. When we got back to school everyone was asking us how we did and kept repeating it over and over. The whole choir was so proud of what they had accomplished. Thanks Ms Wasney for taping the performance of one of our songs.

Festival du Voyageur Field Trip

Hello Room 30 readers! Today we went to Festival du Voyageur with all the Grade 6 and Grade 5’s. It was so amazing. You wouldn’t believe how cool it was. My favourite part was looking at all the shocking ice sculptures people from all around the world came to make! The first place sculpture was a merry-go-round. Third place sculpture was two people who were cutting down trees! My second favourite part was eating pure Maple syrup that was frozen. We all went on a sleigh ride but before we learned about how Voyageurs traveled. It was a great day!   By Cam

Field Trip

Welcome Stroom30 Readers!

On Friday we went to the Abundant Life Church with Ms Wasney's class. When we got there, we sorted out food, toys, wrapped presents, knitted items (scarves, mittens, toques etc.) and sorted pennies/coins for some of the less fortunate people. We sorted ourselves into different groups, groups of five to be exact, and our groups would go to different things. I started off sorting the food, which were in a bundle of boxes, onto some labled shelves. Some of the different catagories were: soup, cereal, pasta, pasta sauce, fruits, macaroni and cheese, snacks and things that didn't have a place to go! After all of the food was sorted, most people worked on sorting pennies. For the pennies, you sort a pile into tens. Then later, you get some rolls, and drop fifty pennies into each roll, then roll them in such a way that they close. After a long while, all the students got called in to have a snack and a drink. The snack was a cup of popcorn (I thought that it was a drink because it was in a pepsi cup) and a cup of either cranberry juice or apple juice. I hoped for cranberry, but I ended up with a cold glass of apple juice (it tasted better than I thought it would). As a school, we brought around...... two hundred sixty-five pounds of food! This food went to people in our own community. I felt good that we were able to help people that are not as fortunate as some of us.
