Battle of the Books

After watching the grade 6s & 7s compete in their Battle of the Books, divs 8 & 9 were inspired to have their own battle. After weeks of reading and developing questions, we met with Mrs. Roberts in the library and battled! 
Congratulations to everyone on their hard work!

Primary Battle of the Books!

We are a week away from our very own Battle of the Books ~ Primary Style!
After watching the intermediates so impressively answer questions during their battle, I can’t wait to meet with Mrs. Roberts in the library and battle ourselves!

I hope everyone has created some challenging questions and is continuing to read and get to know the books as well as they can. Happy Reading!

Round One 🏒

The NHL Playoffs have begun!
We have voted to follow the matchup between the Pittsburgh Penguins and the Philadelphia Flyers!
After each game, we’ll graph the game winning team on a pie chart, the score on a bar graph and keep tallies of the Penguins players goals and assists. I wonder whose prediction will be correct at the end of the 1st Round!?

NHL Playoffs! Round 1!

Our Canucks did not make the playoffs

Celebrating 100 Days

Divisions 8 & 9 created some fun writing by imagining themselves 90+ years into the future and with a little help from the app AgingBooth they had some wrinkly inspiration. Ever imagine yourself at 100?!

St. Michaels Visit

On Thursday morning, we visited Saint Michaels with Miss Gatenby’s grade 1s for our 1st time this year & sang for the seniors.
I’m so proud of how everyone performed and were so respectful in a much different environment than you’re used to. Way to go grade 2s & 3s! 
After entertaining, we were all spoiled with snacks and brought goodie bags back with us to school!

Let it Snow ❄️ Let it Snow ❄️ Let it Snow ❄️

How exciting is all this snow Division 8!?
I hope you’ve all been able to get outside and enjoy it.What have you been doing? Sledding? Skiing? Snowman building?  Kennedy wasn’t the biggest fan when we first plopped her down on our front lawn after school on Friday, but she became more comfortable playing around on our balcony afterwards. She had lots of fun when she got back out in it today.
