Thanks for all your hard work this week, Division 2! You designed some verrry interesting products and developed some powerful pitches to persuade your audience.

Reminder: tomorrow (Friday, April 12th), we have the Oceanwise Sea Dome at the school. This is an exciting interactive event for all Carnarvon students.

The Ocean Wise Sea Dome is a new immersive ocean adventure that brings marine magic to communities everywhere. The portable, inflatable six-metre dome projects 360-degree 4K cinematic footage showing connections between ocean health, climate change, and daily life. You will see the Arctic to view changes in sea ice, tropical reefs to assess the impacts of ocean acidification, and BC’s rivers to learn how salmon habitats can be preserved.

We survived the solar eclipse! Whew! See you in 2044 to watch the next one in Canada.

MATHS:  Analyze the data you recorded in the measurements you took today. What patterns do you see in the data? How is the diameter related to the distance around? Compare the numbers in the two columns and write your conclusion(s). Remember to think like a mathematician!

1. Maths: Please finish Lesson 4.1 Investigating Circles, pg 131, #1 and 3 – 6 (yes don’t do #7!)  for Monday. Please bring a compass to school if you have one at home. Remember for #5, you don’t have to use a compass, just trace a circular object and you only have to repeat the activity with one more circle. This question also needs a protractor to measure the angles. If you don’t have a protractor, at least draw the circles and the diameters, then measure the angles at school first thing Monday morning.

2. Bring math and French test back to school please.

3. Bring field trip permission form back by Thursday April 11th.

4. Bring solar eclipse glasses to school if you want to look at the eclipse. Please make sure your parents read Mr Murphy’s email about it too!

Have a great weekend!
