Welcome Back!

Welcome back! This morning we worked on our journals. The grade 1's were working to have at least 1 hamburger paragraph and some grade 1's were pushing themselves to write two. The grade 2's were working to write 2 hamburger paragraphs and some grade 2's were pushing themselves to write 3 or 4!

After recess we did word work and solo book time. The grade 2's worked on reading by themselves and the grade 1's started practicing some new words. Our words this week are: by, words, but, not, sick, kick, brick, stick. Then we did treasure math.  Everyone is finished level 1, 2, and 3. Lots of people are on level 4 and 5. A few people are on level 6, and 7.

This afternoon we worked on a reflection about out plasticine boats. We looked at the results we found in our experiment before the break and then drew a picture of our best boat. Then we tried to answer the questions what did you do? and what did you learn?

In gym we did some fitness pyramids and played relay games. We did pyramids up to 5 for burpees and sit ups. Then we did running relays in pairs and as a whole class. We will be playing relay games for the next two weeks.

Tomorrow we will be having our clay for kids session from 1:00-3:00. If you are able to volunteer please let Ms. Boyer or Marie know. 

We have a new sharing category. It is favourite animal. For sharing please bring a picture or stuffy of your favourite animal plus a few facts. Also be ready to tell us why it is your favourite animal. 

Our helper tomorrow is: Dhvani
