Thursday

Wow - it is the end of the week already! We are looking forward to FESTIVE EVENING tonight from 6-8pm to share fun time of music, crafts, food and visiting. We are excited to share our song Winter Fun! with everyone too.

Mrs. Armour was away on Wednesday, so Mr. Ogilvie came to teach us again. We worked hard practicing graphs with dice and tallying. Mr. O always has great ideas to help us learn!

Today we started hockey games during gym time. We will use soft "q-tip" sticks while we practice passing and controlling the ball so everyone can be a part and have fun.

We used all the things we know about colour today to "create a match" from a "paint chip" Mrs. Armour read us a book called, SKY COLOUR, which was about a girl who wanted to paint the sky blue, but there was no more blue paint. She wondered and wondered and watched the sky (two GREAT things to do as artists and scientists - wonder and observe!) and then figured out the sky can be many other colors besides blue! Then Mrs. Armour gave us each a paint chip and we had to try and mix the right colors to match it. It was fun to try and decide what colour to add and mix. Most of us tried 3 or 4 colors.

Next week we will finish our portraits and do another colour experiment.

Please remind us to read our HOME READING books and return on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday so we can get new ones.

Thank you to Colin and Lily for sharing food with us this week! Next week is GREEN group's turn. (Malik, Max and Lucas) Thank you for sharing a NUT FREE taste of something important to your family.

Reminder: PD day tomorrow for teachers only. HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!
