Hurray! We're back! Welcome to Our Clubhouse Blog!

Thank you for your patience while we resolved our technical issue!

Thanks to Anya, Kais, Abi and Levi who are helping with the Blog this week.
Here is some of what they wrote about our learning...

• we were the "test class" for the laptops today
• we worked on "math about me" and did some subtraction and addition "checks"
• today we had gym inside and played a game called Kick and Throw. Ask me how to play!
• in science we will be learning about light and shadow - here are some words we will be studying more...opaque, translucent, transparent, reflection, refraction.
• did you know light bends and bounces?

We are also discovering the difference between a complete sentence and a fragment.

Ask me if I can give you an example of each. 

Our writing prompt on Monday was "If you could be any animal, what would you be and why?"

Ask me what I wrote about. (We could also choose to write about our weekend.)

Music days are Wednesday and Thursday.

Our Library day this year is Monday. 

Today we made "hexagon boxes" The challenge was to choose a number between
10 and 20 and make 6 equations. Ask me what my magic number was!



Our first Fresh Air Friday was all about learning to observe nature all around us.
We had a scavenger hunt to see how many different kinds of plants we could find,
then we sketched our favorite thing in our Art journals.



Here are our jobs for the week. Ask me about mine and what I'm responsible for.

If "Ketchup and Pickles" are on the board - this gives us time to "Catch-up"
or if we have completed all our tasks, we can "Pick" something we'd like to do - ask
me what my favourite "pick" is.




Last Thursday the whole school had a welcome back assembly. We always start with an
Acknowledgment of the Land, then Mr. O'Reilly leads us in O Canada. At the end of the assembly
we sing the Dr. Coffin song....can you sing along? "If you go down Barrett Drive..."

We are working hard to settle in to school and learn all our routines and expectations. Mrs. Armour read the book Decibella and then we discussed "voice levels".

THANKS FOR READING!

WELCOME BACK BBQ is 5-7PM Thursday.
