What is your child studying in science?

Drop by the English library and you can find books about recently completed science topics and current science topics.

Integrating the library with the curriculum, classroom practices and materials is important to having a complete and effective library program.

The books are kept on this shelf;

Ms. Egawa's grade five language arts class came to the library.

They used PebbleGo Animals to research an animal of their choice.

Developing 21st century skills in our students is an important part of the
Teachers Librarian's job and a priority in the English library at our school. Mr. Kelly
is very proud of the work being done by Ms. Egawa's class.

Resources from the English library are proving useful in science class.

Students in grade 6 science explored the topic of food webs using the book What are Food Chains and Webs?

Well done Mr. Maddalena !
