Science Trip & Scientist in the School

Dear parents/guardians,
On Thursday, May 25th, 2017 our class will be going to the Ontario Science Center. 

Many thanks to all the parents who expressed an interest in volunteering for the trip. However, four parent volunteers have already been chosen on a first-come-first-serve basis. A note in your child's agenda will be written tomorrow to confirm your presence. You are kindly requested to arrive at 8:40 a.m. with your child. 

What to Prepare for the Trip:
1. A packed litter-less, nut-free lunch and snacks are required. Please ensure that your child eats a good breakfast arriving to school.
2. Each student is responsible for carrying his/her own belongings. Please make sure that your child has an appropriate back pack/lunch bag to carry to the Science Center.
3. Dress your child in comfortable clothing and in running shoes so that he/she is able to explore the center and participate in a workshop.
4. Wear protective sun gear (e.g., sunblock, hat).
5. Schedule: a. Tour of new 'Energy' exhibit  b. Lunch   c. Imax movie   d. Energy workshop

And...

 



On Friday, May 26th, 2017 the students in Room 111 will participate in the Energy Makes it Happen workshop. The workshop will complement and sum up our Science unit on Energy. Students will learn about energy conservation, solar panels, solar energy, heat energy, and light energy. Students will need to bring their creativity, curiosity, and teamwork skills in order to take part in an exciting morning.

Since I had several generous parents offering to volunteer for the trip, if you have not been chosen for the trip, your aid and support for the Scientist in the school workshop will be much appreciated. Please check your child's agenda for confirmation of your presence.

Merci beaucoup!
