Reading in the Park

        
We celebrated the end of the school year with our last Literacy Celebration, Reading in the Park. All of Nelson walked over to Secret Park after lunch with our blankets and books and we enjoyed our stories in the sunshine.

W is for WATER BALLOON DROP

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!

V is for VALUING DIVERSITY


~ 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.
