If Santa Fell Down My Chimney

This morning we began the day with our morning message, a special visit from Mrs.Sorensons and then a visit to the library.  Thankfully all 21 students in our class were here today to have our class picture taken!

Once pictures were done we;

-talked about what we would do if Santa got stuck in our chimney
-wrote about how we would help Santa and then made a chimney with his legs sticking up
-did an in-door recess GoNoodle
-subitized numbers to 20
-worked on a special (and tricky) special Christmas project

Question of the day-  Why is Humphrey having a tough time (think about the chapter I read today)?

Class Picture Day Tomorrow!

Good evening families,

Thank you for remembering to return all of your children's school books today!  I'm just running out the school now but will post tonight.

Today at school we;
-had our Monday morning leadership assembly.  Congratulations to Alex who was nominated for his leadership pencil.  He worked to help another student with her Math last week and had lots of fun while doing it!
-made a star highlighting what we are most proud of so far this year
-went to whole school choir in the gym
-wrote in out Gratitude Books
-worked on Mathletics
-tried to place numbers in the correct spot on the number line
-played floor hockey in gym.  Right now the "Shooting Stars" lead the "Green Ninja's" 2-1 thanks to Stasia's 2 goals!
-Began reading the 2nd book in the Humphrey series

DON'T forget it's classroom picture day tomorrow!

Question:

What citizenship do you think Santa is?  Why do you think this?

Good Afternoon,


Today flew by with library, a Science experiment and writing in the morning.  In the afternoon we had a special guest (Mr.Lowe) visit us during our Math class.  We also played a hockey type game in gym and finished off the day with a Science Test.

Sorry for the quick blog!

Question of the day:

What materials can you use from nature to create colours?  What colours do the materials make?
