What an amazing experience our students had with their big buddies. Thank you to Ms. Dixon for picking up the plants and seeds. We have a great assortment of plants to care for including kale, herbs, marigolds, and much more. We enjoyed learning about the plants and getting our hands dirty as we carefully planted each one. We look forward to watching them grow! Check out our garden beds in the community garden when you get a chance!

Students worked collaboratively in partners to create symmetrical designs. Partners faced each other and took turns mirroring what the other had added to the design. Check out the beautiful, symmetrical images.

After learning about the artist, students designed their own portfolio covers in the style of Jackson Pollock.  Students focused on colour combinations, texture, movement and flow. These portfolios will hold students’ work and be sent home at the end of the school year.  

We Celebrated our 100th day together as a class this past week. We had so much fun working with the number 100. Here are a few pictures of some of the stations. We had building with 100, making 100 fruit loop necklaces, adding 100 drops, estimating 100, reading 100 books, writing 100 words, doing art with 100 etc. 

Students enjoyed giving cards and treats to each other in the morning when they arrived. Later when we opened our Valentine’s bags and read our cards, the room was full of excitement and gratitude. Thank you for supporting your child to participate. It is always a favourite day for the students.

Thank you to all the parent drivers for helping us get to and from skating earlier this month! We couldn’t have done it without you!

Hello Families,

Please get your skating permission forms in to me asap. Thank you!
