Highlights from our learning today: 
- In math we learned about the value of numbers in place value (e.g. a 4 in the 10s column means a value of 40, but a 4 in the 100s column means a value of 400!)
 - We sorted pictures into animals, food, buildings, transportation, landscapes, and more! (Taylor)
 - For science, we used the computers to learn about animal adaptations (Natalie)
 - adaptations are what they do to protect themselves (Norah)
 - Body Coverings:
 - fish have body coverings to protect themselves in the water (Declan)
 - turtles have hard shells to protect themselves (Malcolm)
 - Behaviours:
 - rattlesnakes use their tails to warn enemies (Aiden)
 - skunks scare away their predators with a smell (Chasity)
 - Body Parts:
 - fish have gills to breathe underwater (Kiana)
 - pikas have sharp teeth to bite off plants and keep them to eat in winter (Aykut)
