Good afternoon parents,

Our blog team this week has been Ashton, Senna, and Lily.

Today we had centers in the morning and also guided reading. Then we went to library and Mrs. Kidd read us a story called Brave Irene. It was a very old story made in 1920. Then we started working on making puppets of our family for our All About Me books. We noticed that everyone was planning a Family category so it made sense to do this part first.

After recess we did printing and guided reading. The grade 1's have finally finished our printing practice and will be moving on to studying word families. The grade 2's practiced spelling the months of the year. Ms. Boyer will give them a quiz tomorrow.

In math we needed to finish up our survey projects. If we were finished we got to play Mathletics.

After lunch we continued our paint chip challenge from yesterday. We needed to use what we know about colours and mixing colours to try to make the colours on a whole bag of paint chips. Some of the colours we tried to make were: Beach Purple, Bold Orange, Track Green, and Clear Teal.

Then we went to gym. We played pillow polo. We had two games going, one for the grade 1's and one for the grade 2's. We are getting better at passing but sometimes we will forget that we shouldn't take the ball away from people on our own team :)

After gym we did sharing and then we met with Room 1 and PT to practice our song for the festive evening.

We have a new sharing category starting tomorrow. It is "Bring Your Favourite Toy". Please remember that anything very expensive or breakable should be left at home. 

Our helper tomorrow is: Addison
