Hello Everyone,
This post is dedicated to Mother’s Day. It is a day we celebrate mothers, grandmothers and other important people who care for and nurture us. This year, it is on Sunday, May 10. Today’s activities are special surprises for the people you are honouring. Your mom might see this post but try keep your creations a secret until Sunday. If she does find out, please remember it’s your thoughtfulness and hard work that really matters.
Poetry
Find a blank page in your poetry book and write out the following poem:
M.O.M.
M is for the many times you’ve hugged me,
O’s for the outstanding things you do,
M is all our memories together —
Mom, I am so glad that I have you!
By Leanne Guenther
When you are done, add colour or decorate it. I have included an example.
On the back of the page write the title, What I Love About Mom. Make a list of all the things you love about your mom. I have also included an example of this.
On Sunday, read the poem and list to your mom, or take the poem out of your poetry book and give it to her as a gift!
Mother’s Day Card
We will try and make the following card featured below from easypeasyandfun.com. Please note that I made some adjustments to the craft so that we can make it using white paper and pencil crayons or crayons. Please watch the original video and then click on the link to watch my altered version.
Click here to watch Ms. Bonar make the tulip card.
These activities require time and patience. Remember to do your best and take breaks when you need them. Good luck and have fun!
Wonderful Work
I have lots of work to share today! I am always delighted to open my mailbox and see all the wonderful things you have done. Great job everyone!
Shalom, Mariia , Bahar and Ana wrote about their experience during the hail storm.
Shalom first thought it was rain.
Mariia was on the balcony with her cat.
Bahar’s sister brought hail inside for them to touch.
Ana was just finishing up a fun day outside with her family when the weather changed.
Perry slept through the hail storm, but she wrote about something else very exciting. She joins her neighborhood in making noise at 7pm to show support for health-care workers. Do you make noise too?
Emma and Urral wrote journal entries about spending time outdoors.
Emma flew her kite!
Urral played soccer.
Abbas and Luke had fun indoors.
Abbas made adjustments to the characters in his video game.
Luke watched t.v, played Roblox and “pranked” himself! Oh my!
Omar painted his rock.
Urral also painted his.
And one more person did too!
