Tuesday, November 5

Our day started with the second step in our poppy art project.  For this step, we drew out our poppies and then painted the negative space black.  We had to be very careful when we were painting.

We continued our look at rights that we have in Canada.  Today we were looking at the collective rights we have as well as our democratic rights.  We read with a partner and then watched the video below.

We learned about the 8 steps investigators follow when solving a crime.  We were given slips of paper with each of the steps written on them.  We then needed to work with our table group to determine the correct order of steps.  The correct order of steps involved is:
1. Secure the scene
2. Prevent contamination
3. Gather and document evidence
4. Process the evidence
5. Gather suspects
6. Link evidence to suspects
7.  Conclusions- who committed the crime
8.  Prove in court

Our day finished with a math game with all 3 grade 6 classes.
