Halloween

Halloween Art

our painted jack-o-lanterns

 

We had a fun day celebrating Halloween! In class, we created a Halloween class book (with photos of us in our costumes), played some Halloween Math dice games, drew a spooky picture, and measured ourselves with the pumpkin ruler! In the afternoon, we did a Halloween dance and participated in the school-wide costume parade, where we made a super long train and walked through the school. We also looked at all the amazing jack-o-lanterns created by students and their families! The sun made it out just in time for our afternoon parade.

 

We had many fa-BOO-lous visitors in our classroom that day! We had princesses, unicorns, witches, black cats, a police officer, a fireman, many superheroes, a Hello Kitty, some EXPO whiteboard markers, and even a Hot Dog visit our classroom… But where were the teachers and the students?

Boo! Happy Halloween!

Easter Fun

 

Division 12 had a busy day decorating eggs with natural materials and gems and building spring pictures with loose parts! We also had an Easter Egg Hunt organized by the PAC.  It was definitely a fun filled day! Hope everyone had a great Easter long weekend!

100th Day of School

On Wednesday, we celebrated the 100th day of school!  Each student finger-painted 5 gumballs for our gumball machine.  We saw that 20 students x 5 made 100 gumballs!

Students also painted 100 gumballs on their individual gumball machines.

We did 100 jumps in one day!  We did 25 jumps, four separate times.

We also built our own 100 chart with 100 items!  We made 10 rows of 10 items.

Ask your child to count by 10s to 100!

Kindness

Last week was an exciting week! We moved into our new classroom and we are loving our new learning and playing space.  It was also kindness week! To show our friends how much we appreciate them, we brainstormed kind words to describe our friends.  We also drew a portrait of our friends.  Look at all the details and effort we put in to show our friends how much we like them!
