Tuesday/Wednesday

Tuesday we had Library and Mrs. Kidd read us a great story about Humpty Dumpty - but not the one you are thinking of...this story is what happens after...ask me about it!

Gym was outside on Tuesday playing running games "Coloured Eggs" and "Deer and Antelope" and relays using skipping ropes, balls, frisbees!
Today we were in the gym with the huge Parachute. We found out it is really important to cooperate when we play "popcorn" and "mushroom" to make the parachute dance or fly! Then we played "cat and mouse" where we learn to to be aware of our bodies and those around us when we can't see very well and stay away from the cat!

Printing - grade ones worked on the "ick" family and the grade twos worked on the "ing" endings. We are finding and noticing more and more of these words now when we read our books!

Today we worked on a special writing and sketching project...that's all we can say because it is a BIG surprise and you will have to wait and see!

We also worked on our Dioramas and animals out of plasticine...we are learning to ask a friend for specific feedback so we can make our projects even better.

Thanks to Colin, Madalynn, Tessa and Malik for helping with Blog this week! Thanks to Ingmar and Georgia for sharing and reviewing their favorite movies!

Mrs. Armour is starting a "RUN FOR FUN 2K Club" on Wednesdays at lunch starting next week running for 6 weeks. There was a meeting today and an information and permission form coming home if your child is interested in joining. Our goal is to increase our stamina, have fun and add up all our km!

Mrs. Armour says she is getting spoiled by all the treats and notes for Teacher Appreciation Week. Thank you everyone!
