Jingle’s Adventures ~ Week 1

Jingle has been having so much fun hanging out with Division 9’s Grade 3s this past week. Riding Ms. Watt’s reindeer, Snoozing in the Lucky Duck bowl, hiding out in the Treasure Chest and Falling into a stocking.
I can’t wait to see what she gets up to next week!

Skating Field Trip

We went skating! Along with Ms Tsumori’s Grade 3s, we skytrained and walked to Rosemary Brown Arena to try our luck at skating. I hope everyone had lots of fun. Everyone definitely improved during our time there. Click on the skater to the right to see us in action!

Jingle Returns!!

Santa has been sending Jingle, a friendly scout elf from the North Pole, to Room 203 to watch and report on whether Nelson’s Grade 3s are being naughty or nice! She keeps an eye on who is filling their classmates’ buckets during the month of December. Looks like she’s back and having some fun!
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.
