Come read about all the mammals that live in Nova Scotia. Find out where they live and what they eat!

Wednesday Morning


We are about to head out to the field again for another long day of setting traps and looking for mammal sightings. The picture at the left is of cook's lake. I will be posting when I get back tonight. Sorry I will not be able to skype during today. Hope you enjoy some of the activities I left for you. xxoo Mrs. Smith

Yesterday we had a very busy day. On the way to Cook’s lake we stopped to fill up the van. Here is a multi part math problem for you to solve. Answer will come later.
Petrol (gas)costs $1.25 in Canadian dollars for 1 liter. If you buy 25 gallons of gas how much will it cost in American dollars?


We saw a wooly bear caterpillar. The picture is not real clear because if you
touch them they tend to roll up in a ball. There is an old farmers saying that if you look at the length of the black center stripe and if it is long than you are going to have a long winter. If the center stripe of black is short than you are going to have a short winter.


Here is a vocabulary word for you to talk about.
What does the word environment mean? What type of environment do you live in? How does your environment differ from the Nova Scotia environment?


While we were taking a walk along the coast we came across some unique art work. What do you think of it? Could you make something like this? Do you think it is really art or just something fun to do?

Hi Sounds like a neat trip so far. The students enjoy reading your blog. They are curious to find out what you found in the traps today. Dylan R was really excited to know you might find a mountain lion foot print or possibly see one, he made a print today in my class with our mold.

I contacted tech at the county office to find out why we can't post on your blog. Hope we can get that fixed soon. We see that so far your blog has been visited by US and India. We are sending the blog to people we know and hoping you will have people all over the world looking!:)

Dear Mrs.Smith I think that the stones you saw are deffenetley artwork because it is a vary creative way to have fun and it is a sculpture.
