Sleuthing
This week the Wednesday classes performed ink chromatography on the ransom note and suspect pens as part of their sleuthing for the Sabotage on the Spaceship Forensic Mystery. (See more on the mystery in this post.) The Summerland AIM/ASPIRE class, as well as the Penticton 2-3 and 4 classes compiled all of the evidence and made their conclusions as to the identity of the persons responsible for stealing the computer chip that runs the life support systems on the Spaceship Forensic. The culprits were quickly apprehended, the chip was restored and disaster was averted! The Penticton grade 5s will solve their version of this mystery next week.
Last Week of Classes
Next week (the week of May 16th) is the last week of Gifted Program classes. The Gifted Program covers grades 1 - 5, so it is time to wish the grade 5s well as they move on to grade 6 in the fall.
Open House
Parents of students in grades 1 - 3 are invited to drop in on our last class for open house. For Summerland grade 1 - 3 students the class is on Tuesday May 17th from 12:30 - 2:30pm at Trout Creek Elementary room 32. For Penticton grade 2/3 students the class is on Thursday May 19th from 12:30 - 2:30pm at Wiltse Elementary in room 32. Parents are invited to drop in at any time during the class and stay for as long as they are able. Our class starts with 25 minutes of social time, followed by circle and then we move into class activities. Students will show you the different activities we have been doing including their identity projects. We hope you can make it!
