We had a lovely time investigating different healthy foods with our mouths today!

To start off our healthy activity, Mrs. Starling taught us about 6 different kinds of apples. We even got to test all of them to see what our favourite apple was!

Afterwards we had a party to celebrate all the healthy food we brought in to share.

Thank you to all who helped out and supplied the food! It was a fun and successful day, and almost all of the food was eaten by the end of the day.

November news

Please let me know if you are unable to open this months newsletter as I made it on a different program.

On November 8 Stoney Creek had a beautiful assembly for Remembrance Day and Indigenous Veterans Day!  Division 12 had rich conversations about these 2 days. As we talked we recorded our questions. Most of our questions revolved around Poppies, as we all were given one to wear and keep on this day.

It was magnificent listening to all of our classmates share delicate information and stories they had about this day!

We were unable to answer all our questions in one day, I hope they continue to be curious learners and ask questions on many more topics to come.

On Thursday we had the privilege to have leadership students from Burnaby Mountain Secondary teach us basic ball skills. They were very helpful and fun to hang out with! We hope they come back again soon!

Second time with our big buddies! We are working on our new recycling posters. As a group we are learning how to recycle properly and will be teaching the rest of the school. We love our Earth and we want to take care of it!

On Thursday we had the privilege to make kale chips with Mrs. Taylor-Gibbs. She has started our discussion around seasonal patterns and how the Earths rotation affects what season we are in!

In this moment we are peeling the leaves off of the stems into small bite size pieces to get them ready to go in the oven. We even tried one after they were ready!

We are learning to respect the land we live, learn, and play on. You can see us taking a moment to listen to nature all around us! What do you think we heard?

It may looking like we are playing, however, here is what we are working on to prepare us for our futures:

• solving problems with peers
• collaborating with friends
• critically thinking
• being creative thinkers
• developing our social skills
• being responsible individuals
