Agendas

Your child is bringing his/her agenda home today. We'll use the agendas to write down any upcoming activities such as swimming, gym, field trips etc. Please look in your child's agenda every night so you can help him/her come to school prepared every day. Also, please help your child remember to bring his/her agenda to school every day.

Reminder - We have swimming tomorrow! Your child needs to bring a bathing suit, a towel and a plastic bag to school.

Here are a few more of the self portraits we've been working on.

Molly

A few of the kids have been asking about Molly - here's a few pictures of her on a camping trip this summer.

A Great Start to the Year!

We've had a wonderful start to the school year in room 228. The Grade 1 students are adjusting well to their new class, and the Grade 2's have been great role models for their younger classmates. The Grade 1's are having a lot of new experiences, things like recess, the lunch room, using the same bathroom as the Grade 6's, and with the help of the Grade 2 students they have handled all of these new experiences with confidence.

We've started working on several different kinds of self portraits, some using markers, some using pastels and some using paint. We've also started working on 'All About Me' books.

Here are a few samples.

A New School Year!

Ever wonder what is happening in your child's class? Well, wonder no more! Welcome to our blog where the answers to some of your questions may be only a simple mouse click away. Here you will be able to check in and see what we are up to. If you need to know what day we are on or if we have gym, music or swimming just click on our calendar and the information will be there. Important dates and upcoming events will also be included on the calendar.

I will also post fun stuff! Like your child's art work and projects we are working on or a special interest that we are currently exploring. 

From time to time I will include some housekeeping information such as asking your child to be mindful of the weather and to dress accordingly.

Check in occasionally and see us grow!

Trip to the post office

Jack and the Beanstalk!

Mr. Mack's class is learning about the Fairy Tales!


We read the Jack and the Beanstalk and we are so excited that Jack traded his cow for three magic beans!



So we asked everyone what would they trade for three magic beans! You wouldn't believe things that our students would give up for three magic beans!



Computers, power rangers, earrings, barbies, etc etc!

This is our beanstalk! Inspired by Jack and the Beanstalk!

Can you see three magic beans in the basket?

This is my pattern!

Mr.Mack's class is learning about pattern.

"I'm making pattern with red,red,and blue!"

"I am using my favourite two colours to make pattern!"

"I am using happy face and sad face to make pattern"

"I painted my pattern.  My pattern is pink, blue, green, orange and it repeats!"

"I used shadow to created my pattern.  I used big and small leaf to make my pattern!"

"I used yellow block and red block.  See? yellow, red, yellow,red,yellow,red..."

"I love dinosaurs! Two green dinosaurs, one yellow and one blue!"

"Can you guess my pattern?"
