G is for GAMES & H is for HAT

Posted on June 6, 2013 by Ms. Watt | Leave a comment

G ~ 2 days full of GAMES! We celebrated yesterday with the run through of Primary Sports Day. We learned 7 new GAMES as we went through all the stations.
H ~ We were lucky to have an amazing sunny day today for Sports Day, so we wore our HATS to protect us from the hot rays of the sun.

I had so much fun seeing everyone come through my Noodle Javelin station & I hope you all had fun participating in all the stations & competing in the tug-of-wars too! Congratulations to GREEN HOUSE on their big Sports Day win!

E is for ESTIMATION

E ~ Jujubes, Smarties, Jelly Beans, Sours… Count the Candies!!
We spent the morning using referents & good ‘ol fashioned thoughtful guesses to ESTIMATE how many candies were in the jars.

After all the Guessing Jar estimates had been counted, the winners were announced in the afternoon.
Drumroll please……………

Lucas, Eric, Rhea & Hanielle had the closest estimates, with Hanielle making a perfect guess!
Well done to all Division 9 students & their excellent estimates! Can’t wait to enjoy the candies at another Alphabet Countdown day very soon…

My favourite (soon to be yours too!) time of the school year has arrived!
The ALPHABET COUNTDOWN has begun!

For the rest of the school year we’ll be celebrating each day with a letter, or two. We’ll be participating in activities &/or dressing in something special to make our last month together memorable & lots of fun! Today we began with A & spent the day with our favourite stuffed ANIMALS!
