Did you know that it was International Children's Day today? Here in the Clubhouse we did our guided reading groups and journals. The time goes by fast, so we needed time to work on our journals again at the end of the day. Some of us thought it was a long time to write!

Today in Gym we played a game called Hoop Ball. It helps us work on our accuracy for throwing and catching. Everyone stands close to a hula hoop and someone else tries to throw it in the hoop and then you have to try and catch it. It was fun.

We did some more work on our graphs, reviewing how to use a ruler and follow the squares to make our graphs nice and clear and neat. We will be coming up with new survey questions that have four choices tomorrow.

We painted our secondary colors today with our fingers. First, we put a dab of red on our page and then a dab of blue beside it and then we put a dab of blue beside that and mixed it with red and it changed to purple! So it looks a bit like a number sentence...red + blue = purple. Ask us what other colors we mixed.

We had a special treat today. Mrs. Polski came in and brought us some books. We all got one that is coming home in our backpacks. Mrs. Polski read the first half, but we are excited to read the rest of it. Please read with us tonight. This is a special project from the TD Bank group and Canadian Children's Book Centre. It is called Good Morning, Canada. Some of us looked on the back cover and discovered there are three more books in the series. Maybe we can find them in the library.

Tomorrow is Home reading and LIBRARY. Please remind us to read tonight and then put our bags and books into our back pack, so we can exchange them tomorrow. Thank you!

REMINDER: Wear a mustache for Movember on Wednesday. This is optional but a fun event put on by our Spirit Club.
Fun Lunch Thursday.
