An inquiry into the reproductive systemToday the students learned about reproduction. They compared the reproduction of plants, animals, insects and humans. They examined labelled diagrams and went over key vocabulary. There were initially a few giggles and laughs as any normal grade 5/6 student would. There was a insightful snowball activity where students submitted inquiry questions and I answered them. 

Homework: Parents please fill in the blanks if your son/daughter has any further questions. Helpful tip*** don't use analogies. They can be easily misinterpreted.
Music
As usual after lunch the students had a music lesson with Mrs. Angus. Parents please check their agenda to see which pieces they have been asked to practise.
Bonus Music
The grade 5/6's practiced their song for the Christmas concert with Mrs. Angus.
