An advent calendar with Christmas customs from around the world…
Do your parents or grandparents celebrate Christmas customs from somewhere else in the world where they’ve lived?

ohmigoodness, are you as excited as I am Division 8?! Over the next couple weeks room 203 will be transforming into a bit of a winter wonderland in anticipation for the BEST MONTH OF THE YEAR!!
Tune in here to see the daily additions to your home away from home as I do a 10 day countdown to December!

Hope everyone had a ton of fun today & are ready to share on Wednesday!! After lots of fun during the day at school, my husband Ryan & I went to my best friend Fiona’s house. We ate lots of yummy sushi and then Fiona and her son Nolan went Trick or Treating with Kennedy and I. Click on the pics for a closer look!

  
What costumes did you wear out Trick or Treating!? Send your pictures to stephanie.watt@sd41.bc.ca

After brainstorming all the reasons we love our moms & all the special things they do for us, we created these mini masterpieces to gift to our fabulous moms. I hope all moms had a wonderful day & were spoiled silly!

One of the ways Division 8’s Grade 3s celebrated Valentine’s Day dug into some candy hearts & used them to complete graphing, measurement, addition, & patterning activities. Click on the HEART for pictures!

Merry Christmas Nelsonites! I hope everyone has had tons of fun over the past week celebrating the holidays & spending time with your friends & families! 
After lots of fun during the last few days of school, including catching snowflakes on our tongues on the playground, I celebrated my birthday with friends while enjoying some crazy good cinnamon bun french toast! One of my families traditions is lighting candles on the advent wreath on the 4 Sundays before Christmas.  Ryan & I hosted our families for a German Christmas on Christmas Eve. I had a bit of an unsuccessful attempt at baking rolls for Christmas morning. We then finished off our celebrations with a delicious turkey dinner with all the fixings at my mom’s house. Enjoy your 2nd week of winter holidays & I can’t wait to hear about all your celebrations in the New Year!

Last year a friendly scout elf was sent by Santa to Room 203 to watch & report on whether Nelson’s Grade 3s this year are naughty or nice!
She’s back and it looks like she’s got a new pet reindeer!

I can’t wait to see who’ll be the first to spy the new spot she’ll be watching from each day! I hope her daily report to Santa includes many acts of kindness that she witnesses in our classroom.
