The Grinch

We’ve been working on various Christmas themed poems and read-alouds. The children all did a great job really thinking about the true meaning of Christmas, especially when we talked about the Grinch. Here are some of their responses...

 

 

Here is a copy of our Advent poem... 

 

Great work everyone! 

Letter from Santa

Today the students were all very excited to receive mail from the North Pole! We got our letter from Santa today, which not only contained a ‘Nice List’ with all of our students names on it, but also a gift of sunflower seeds (mrs. Claus’ favourite) to be planted by our class in the new year to watch grow. What an exciting day! 

 

 

 

PJ Day

 

Christmas Fun

Just a few friendly reminders for tomorrow and Friday. Tomorrow is Christmas shirt/sweater/colours day, so if you have a shirt that is Christmas themed please feel free to wear it. Friday is Christmas movie and popcorn day, where grades Jk-2 will enjoy a movie with some popcorn as a prize for raising the most money during our last fundraiser. Friday is also PJ Day for those who want to wear their Pjs... please note though that students will still be going out for recess. Finally tonight is our PAC Christmas carnival. 

 

Christmas Fun

The students have been hard at work on various Christmas activities. Recently we worked on measuring and comparing the length of different papers to make our own Christmas Trees. Then we worked on our cutting skills to cut out our own Christmas Stockings. Any extra practice with pencil/crayon grip, as well as scissor grip would be beneficial for your child moving forward. Great work everyone! 

 

 

Breakfast with Santa

Thank you so much to everyone for coming out today to Breakfast with Santa. We are so proud of how well all of the children performed! Great job everyone! This afternoon the children were treated to a Christmas concert by the St. Anne's Band and Choir. What a great show! 

Enjoy your weekend! 

Name Print Practice

We are very excited to show you our most recent Name Print Practice activity... the students have all been working very hard at forming their letters in both upper and lower case. Some students have their name printed on the paper twice, once by them and once by a teacher for modelling purposes. Great work everyone! Keep up the practice!
