Tuesday April 23

 Hello Families,

We are having a wonderful week so far! Our class is loving the beautiful spring weather! In class this week we are learning about ways that the earth's surface is altered or changed. Our class learned about volcanoes, what they are and how they work. Students created a poster on volcanoes including pictures, words and symbols. In English we are reading the novel The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane and creating an event map to order our ideas. In Math we are studying angles and regular polygon shapes. Please see the below fundraising information!

 Wilder Institute – Burrowing Owl Conservation

 

As participants in the Conservation Champions Festival with the Wilder Institute/Calgary Zoo, the grade 3 students in Mrs. Moravec’s and Mrs. Price’s classes, have chosen to support and educate others on the burrowing owl. 

 

Copperfield School will be collecting donations starting on April 22^nd through April 26^th 2024 to raise money for the “Head Starting Program” that is aimed at caring for and protecting burrowing owlets until they are stronger, and able to be released safely into the wild as adults. Our hope is that we will be able to raise over a thousand dollars towards this program.

 

For every $2 donation, your child will earn a classroom ballot. After the fundraiser is over, we will draw a ballot and the winning class will get the opportunity to play a game of dodgeball vs. the teachers and staff of Copperfield! The more toonies your class brings in, the more ballots your class gets, and the more ballots your class gets, the better the chances of your class winning the opportunity to play dodgeball against the teachers!
