This afternoon students began the Minute to Win It Challenge of 2017! Students will be collecting the data from three attempts of eight different challenges over the next week, and then graphing their results. Then they will design their own game and play it with the class, collecting their data and graphing the results. Today we started with A Little Bit Dicey (how many 6's can you roll in 1 minute?) and Squat-tastic! (how many squats can you do in 1 min?). Students may be a little sore this evening! Ask your student how many squats they managed!
We are also beginning a new animal research project. Please discuss different animals with your student and help them decide which animal they would like to research over the next few weeks!

Evergreen for ALS
Our school is participating in a community walk to support the ALS Society of Alberta on Thursday, June 1, 2017. This is a cause that has directly impacted our school this year. Approximately 3 000 Canadians live with ALS. There is no known cause or cure for this devastating disease - yet.
All proceeds from our walk will stay in Alberta to make each day the best possible day for people living with and affected by ALS. Please use the link below if you would like to make an online donation. Our School ALS Donation Page with the ALS Society of Alberta: EVERGREEN FOR ALS . We thank you for your support!
Parents and community members are invited to join us at Evergreen School on Thursday June 1st from 6:00pm to 7:00pm for an informative session with Dr. Lawrence Korngut. Dr. Korngut will be sharing information about ALS and current promising research. Dr. Korngut is a neurologist at the Calgary Neuromuscular Clinic and is the Director of the Calgary ALS and Motor Neuron Disease Clinic. His research includes clinical trials of new therapies for neuromuscular conditions. Please RSVP to this event before May 25th at [email protected]
Have a wonderful evening,
