Today for spirit day our whole school had matching day!

Check out our class’ matching outfits!

Today we visited our community fire station! We got to try the hose, sit in the truck, and learn all about fire trucks and fire fighters! Here’s a link to more photos: pictures

Feel free to download the ones of your child, but do not post other children’s photos. Thank you!

We’ve been learning all about different Canadian coins for math. Today Ms. Shen made Shenny dollars to practice adding and coming up with different totals! She gave us a number and we had to use coins and bills to give exact amounts.

Today we got to walk to one of our local grocery stores and learn about the different jobs, products, and reasons of why it’s important to have grocery stores in our community! We saw that Superstore isn’t just for food, but they have so many other departments as well. We also met many different people who work there and learned how important it is to have different skills and workers so that the store can operate smoothly!

Huge thank you to Ms. Chan, Ms. Stevens, Ms. D, Ms. A and our parent volunteers who helped make this field trip happen! Thank you for walking with us and helping us learn about the community we live in. Thank you you Superstore for having us and always spoiling us with cool experiences and treats. (Thank you Ms. Stevens for taking pictures!)

Today we took a much needed break to enjoy the sunshine. We’ve been working so hard in our classroom learning about different communities, how to write poems, learning phonics, making cards, writing letters, and doing math scavenger hunts! We decided to take our snacks outside and enjoy a class picnic! It was so much fun!

Today we celebrated 3 birthdays in our class! We also got some ladybug larva. We get to watch them grow and transform into ladybugs over the next few weeks!

Today we finished up our two day art project! We created little vases filled with cherry blossoms! In the afternoon we got to make healthy wraps! We each got to make our own and fill a tortilla with carrots, cucumbers, peppers, humus, cheese, and ranch! It was so delicious! We then wrote poems about our crunchy, yummy, rainbow wraps.

Today Ms. Shen pranked us for April Fools. We were given a spelling test. Read it from 12 to 1 (backwards)!

Today we learned about healthy eating! We got a special snack of yoghurt and cereal. We also had extra gym time and we participated and followed a workout video with our big buddies! We are learning how to keep our bodies healthy and strong. Our goal is to one day beat Ms. Shen in an arm wrestle. Ms. Shen says it won’t be too hard because we’re all getting so strong!

Today we went out for recess early and played in the fresh snow! After recess we took a community walk to Coffee Loft to deliver the rest of our coffee sleeves! We each got a cookie the size of our faces! It was such a fun community walk in the snow!
