Researching Animal Names

This week we began talking about animals and their offspring.  We discussed what we knew about the different names animals can have based on their gender or age.  Then, using the iPads, we did a scavenger hunt to find the different names of certain animals.  We had to work together as a table group, and with a partner to find the answers.  We discovered that a lot of animals have similar names, some of them are very interesting.                
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  

We also had a visit from the Grade 5 Divisional Choir this week.  They sang beautifully, and we were very grateful for the opportunity to hear them.
