In English we have been sharing our comprehension of texts by reading the same book in small groups. Everyone chooses one or two questions for the group to discuss. Sometimes everyone agrees, and other times we have different opinions.

We consider questions that are either literal (where the answer can be found in pictures or words on the page) or inferential (where we make assumptions about what the author wants us to think and use our own knowledge to answer the questions).

In Science we have been finding out about the solar system. It was fun to debate if we would like to go to the mood and why. 2/3 of the class would not like to go to the moon!

The grade 3 and 4 group investigated the power of the sun. They used light sensitive paper to make shadow prints using objects from the classroom.
