    Fantastic to see this up and running! Just to let parents in the Summerland area who may be doing the My Community unit for a few different grades the Summerland Museum is a fantastic place to go. I took our kids and Rayna documented Summerland with her camera and made a poster. Also the curator is very helpful, her name is Sharon Stone and has many presentations and worksheets to fill out. She also took pictures of our kids and me and said they will be on their website. Hours and more info can be found at http://www.summerlandmuseum.org/

    Another idea for students doing any Mapping unit or Canada unit. https://donnaward.net/news.php?cat_id=7&article_id=259
    The website shows a perfect recipe for fantastic cookie dough that works great to make a giant Canada cookie. We used large sprinkles to mark capital cities, icing to divide the provinces and we even had gummy bears for wildlife! The kids loved it and it really helped with remembering the provinces.

    I found a fun snowman project online. Good for primary students, but Adria will probably make one with us to!

    And I found a website where you can read the story online. This will be our fun winter project today!
