Monday

Today is Monday so we started with our Journal pictures and writing. We used the questions, Who? Did What?, Where? and When? to help us add more details. Grade ones did printing "L" and Grade twos are printing out the words to "In Flander's Fields" so we can all learn the poem together.

During Gym time we had a practice lockdown. We all had to walk into the storage room and sit quietly and wait until the Constable came and unlocked the door. It seemed like a long time, but we did very well at being quiet! We know it is a good thing to practice, just like with a fire drill!

We read the book, What does Peace feel like? We are going to try and think about using our senses to explain Peace...how does it smell/taste/sound/look? Ask us what we think Peace is.

Math was fun because we got to use Smarties! We had to figure out how to sort them and show how many of each colour we had through pictures, words and number. We all had different ideas how to represent our Smarties and we all had fun eating them after.

Logan shared his violin with us and played the music from Star Wars! We are looking forward to Samantha and Birdy sharing something musical. We are learning how to be good listeners so we can ask good questions after each of our classmates share.

Thank you for being patient as we figure out what works best for our comings and goings. We are going back to being dismissed FROM THE PORTABLE at the end of the day. Apologies for any confusion. 

REMINDER: Library tomorrow. Please put your books in your backpack so you can choose new books on Tuesday!

There is a meeting for all parents interested in volunteering with the Home Reading Program tomorrow after school from 3:45-4:15. We plan to start this right away and will be reading and exchanging books every Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday. There will be a google calendar that you can connect with and sign up times that work for you. Thank you for all your help whenever it might work.
