In Science, we add our observations to the germination chart. On June 4th, Seed A had 10 and Seed B had 4 germinated seeds. On June 6th, Seed A had 14 and Seed B had 7 germinated seeds. Most of use think that Seed B is from space or was exposed to space like conditions, and that Seed A is from Earth. They are growing rapidly and we will continuing to make our observations.

We read Chapter 12 in Ticket to Curlew. In this chapter Sam's family started reading the weekly newspapers to the Corbetts. One Saturday morning was suppose to read the newspaper, but he did not arrive back from town early enough so Sam read in his place. He was a bit scared at first, but he ended being a strong and confident reader.
We had hoop dancing with Jessica. We started dancing with 1 hoop, then 2 hoops and made way to 5 hoops. Jessica talked about how dancers could go up to 50 hoops at most. Using hoops we created different animals, creatures and symbols, such as butterflies, eagles, horses, beavers, a bow and arrow. When we dancing we are making a story with our actions.
We had a presentation about chickens! We learned that about were they go when they are babies. Male chickens get processed to become food, female chickens either lay eggs and/or get processed as well. Brown chickens are more sociable and white chickens tend to be less sociable. The colour of their eggs determines the colour of their eggs - brown chickens lays brown eggs and white chickens lay brown or white eggs. There is one Rooster per hen house, and their job is to calm all chickens.

Kingston's Passion Project was about the NHL which stands for the National Hockey League. Every year there is an All Star weekend. In 2019, the winner of the fastest skater was won by Connor McDavid, the hardest shot went to by John Carlson, and Johnny Gaudreau won puck control.
For Turner's Passion Project we learned about the Stanley Cup and the previous teams that have won the Stanley Cup. In 2018 the Washington Capitals won and the Pittsburgh Penguins have won the cup in two consecutive years (2016 and 2017). The very first team that won the Stanley Cup in 1918 were the Toronto Arenas.
