Wednesday

We are enjoying our new centres - we think researching animals of our choice (scientist) and performer are the most popular right now. During guided reading some of us read about Origami and making a frog - a few of us enjoyed it so much we wanted to make more of them and teach others how to make them! Trinity, Tessa and Lily shared a "frog play" today for us.


Most of us finished our Picasso portraits and other secret project for the volunteers (shhhh!) Today we used black sharpie to outline and it really makes our painting stand out. Our faces look funny and stretched out with different shapes - but that's all part of "painting like Picasso!"

We really enjoyed the book Mrs. Armour read called Skippyjon Jones - about a cat who likes to pretend he is a Chihuahua so he speaks in a Spanish accent! The author is Judy Schachner if we wanted to look for more books in the library.

In gym we had another day of relays using rackets and puff balls, volleyballs and hoops. Ask me how we used them.

Colin shared his art today - a beautiful, colorful peacock out of feathers - we realized it was symmetrical - not like asymmetrical like our Picasso paintings. Do you know what this means?

Tomorrow is Coffin Cares Assembly and Jersey Day to honor and remember the Humboldt Broncos. We can wear our own jerseys or green and yellow or Coffin Cares T-shirts and hoodies. We can also bring hockey sticks to put outside the classroom door (or mini sticks to have on our desks). We want to show our support and care to those who are hurting. Thanks for caring with us!

A purple field trip form is coming home today for INGLEWOOD BIRD SANCTUARY on Monday, April 23. Thanks for signing and returning this form. If you can volunteer you can tear off the bottom slip and send that in as well. Mrs. Armour will  send another volunteer form home for you to sign.
THANK YOU!
