This morning was our second last day to finish our Acadian centers. Quite a few of us were able to finish and we are ready to make our Acadian displays tomorrow. After centers we worked on our story writing. We have our first finished story! Isla has completed her whole story and has started typing. Ask me how my story is coming along.

After recess the grade 1's finished their spelling test and then we did treasure math. In treasure math Ms. Boyer is noticing that quite a few of the students who have finished said that the 4th challenge was the hardest. This was the challenge where we had to complete lots of different counting patterns. Although these counting patterns were challenging they are an important building block for adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing so Ms. Boyer said they were worth a bit of extra work.

This afternoon we started by rehearsing the songs for our assembly and then we started working on our Nova Scotia dioramas. We started by painting the background. We wanted to make sure we had a good background of water, land, and sky. Tomorrow we will start building the layers to make our dioramas look really realistic.  Then we had library. If you forgot to bring back your books you can bring them back tomorrow and Mrs. Kidd will be happy to check them in for you. Starting in June Mrs. Kidd will be doing an inventory of our school library. In order to help her with this huge job it will be important for us to be bringing our books back on time for the rest of the year so that she can be prepared to start her inventory in June.

After library we had gym. We were really great listeners in gym today and had time to play three different games! Sometimes we only have time for 1 so today we were very proud of ourselves and Ms. Boyer was really happy too!

Our helper tomorrow is: Sarah
