May 5

This morning we started working on a special Mother's Day surprise. But, you will have to wait until tomorrow to see it! The surprise includes two different projects that we have put together to make something beautiful!

During math the Grade 1's spent some time practicing adding and subtracting on Mathletics.  The grade 2's worked on a hidden picture activity where they had to do 2-digit addition and subtraction and also use a hundred's chart to find the picture.  This activity will become a centre choice next week so we can have even more practice with our adding and subtracting skills.

After lunch we continued working on the Mother's Day surprise until it was time for the Volunteer Tea. At the Volunteer Tea we sang "Tomorrow" and "Red Red Robin".  We were very jealous of the beautiful tea cups the Volunteers got to use and the yummy treats they had! There were beautiful flowers on the table for the volunteers and some of the volunteers got to take the flowers home as a prize. After we performed we got to have an extra recess break instead of having gym because the gym was being used for babysitting.

Please remember that tomorrow is the Family Dance! Tomorrow is also Fresh Air Friday. Please be sure to dress for the weather. We will be working in the Whispering Woods.
