Health!

This week in health we were fruit and veggie detectives! We had to figure out the mystery fruit or veggie in the box just by feeling it. We did a great job!

Kernels for Caring

We are so excited to announce that all of our students have worked very hard earning Good News tickets, and as a result our Kernels for Caring jar is full! That means that we will be having a popcorn party tomorrow. We will be supplying the popcorn and maybe even a short Easter movie. If you do not want your child to have any popcorn please put a note in their mailbag so we know. Thank you for your continued cooperation. 





Sight Word Challenge!

Our students have been learning some sight words in PALS so we decided to have a sight word challenge! The children decided they wanted to play boy vs girls. Everyone did a great job recognizing there common sight words and it ended in a tie! Great work!

Easter

The students have been doing a great job listening to stories and poems about Jesus and Easter. We have been working on some special crafts that will be coming home on Thursday for you to enjoy over your Easter weekend. Today the students helped us to colour our Jelly Bean Prayer which helps to teach us more about the first Easter. The students have been practicing reading this prayer altogether. Maybe they will read it to you too! 






Welcome Back!

Yesterday the students all really enjoyed sharing their My March Break page. Everyone worked really hard on their homework page, making sure that their picture had lots of colours and details. Way to go! It was great hearing all about everyone's week. Great sharing was done by all!

Cutting Fun!

Just before our March Break, the students worked hard on making their own St. Patrick's Day Four Leaf Clovers. The students had to trace a model, cut it out, print Happy St. Patrick's Day, and use their fingers to paint little gold coins all around it. This was a great activity for the students to practice using their fine motor skills. Cutting is something that we encourage you to practice with your child at home, using child safety scissors, as it really helps to strengthen their fine motor muscles. Great work!
