Highlights

In Science, we reviewed our sense of sight and talked about how people can see things different ways.  For example, we worked together as a group to complete a colour blindness test.  We also put the infamous picture of “the dress” on the Smartboard and had students colour what they saw.  It was interesting because some people saw the dress as blue and black, while others saw it as white and gold.  Even Ms. Bain, Ms. Hansen and Mrs. Colpitts all saw the dress as being different colours.  It is important to have your child’s eyesight checked regularly by a professional.  J
