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 and/or dressing in something special to make our last month together memorable and lots of fun!

I’ll be giving a clue here each afternoon about what the next day’s theme will be. Stay tuned to see what we begin with this Friday! … is for…

~ One last hour together as 2018/19’s Division 8 Grade 3s – marked our last day together this school year before ZOOMING out of Nelson & ZIPPING into summer! We signed and commented in each others yearbooks, took photos for an upcoming When I Grow Up… post and Ms. Watt shared one of her very favourite Dr. Seuss books, Oh, the Places You’ll Go.
Love you Division 8, have a TON of fun this summer and I can’t wait to see you all in September!
Ms. Watt

 ~ Who doesn’t love eXPLOSIONS!?

~ We joined forces with Division 7 today and competed in a friendly WATER BALLOON drop competition! After choosing our material from a small collection of shoe boxes, cardboard, toilet paper rolls, paper towel, popsicle sticks and paper plates, we worked in groups of 2 or 3 to design a contraption to protect the water balloon!
It was SO exciting to be on the ground and see the creativity and success of your contraptions!

~ We celebrated National Indigenous People’s Day with Division 7. 
Ms. Tsumori hosted us one last time and shared some delicious tea containing dandelion leaf, yarrow and stinging nettle, plants you have been learning are very important to the Indigenous people of BC. It was such a treat and most found it really yummy!  We drank it while learning about the shíshálh Nation and then created beaded bookmarks around a theme of acceptance, honour and VALUING DIVERSITY.

~ U-PICK the movie! We got to sit back and relax and enjoy the 1st half of The Emoji Movie! We will be enjoying the second half tomorrow. I love the message that having real friends is more important than being popular, and that good friends will help out even when things are hard.

~ We created some cool T-SHIRT art, showcasing our
very favourites in food, things, friends, places, hobbies & more!
