Reports out tomorrow No school on Friday

Hi parents just a reminder that school report will be handed out at 3:20 tomorrow and there will be no school on Friday. 

 Students have been working hard in class and have fit back into the school routine with some positive learning evident in the room.

 We have been doing some fun experiments with light and shadows that you should ask about as well a quizzing them on multiplication facts. We will be starting on division soon! 

 We are taking part in the BMO entrepreneurial challenge again this year which will help us learn about simple machines, business and leadership skills, plants and growth and much more.

Our class will be trying to raise funds for an unknown charity (We vote tomorrow) by creating and selling as many plants as possible. To do this we would love your help and support. If you have or know anyone with top soil, plant pots, seeds or plants we could collect cuttings from that would help us greatly, and allow the students to further enrich their learning.

What Is A Lever? A  lever  is a simple  machine  consisting of a bar that rotates around a fixed point. The fixed point of a lever is called the fulcrum. Like other machines, a lever makes work easier by changing the force applied to the machine or the  distance  over which the force is applied. Classes of Levers Other levers change force or  distance  in different ways than a hammer removing a nail. How a lever changes force or distance depends on the  location  of the input and output forces relative to the fulcrum. The input force is the force applied by the user to the lever. The output force is the force applied by the lever to the object. Based on the location of input and output forces, there are three basic types of levers, called first-class, second-class, and third-class levers.  Classes of Levers Class of Lever Example of Lever in This Class Location of Input & Output Forces & Fulcrum* Ideal Mechanical Advantage Change in Direction of Force?
