Surprise

The balance board is very popular in our class!  Looks like we might have some future surfers!
 
My daughter, Rebecca, has finished her Grade 9 exams and had this whole day off!  So she came to volunteer in our classroom.
  
Great day for sledding!
     
After we came in from sledding, Rebecca G. brought a treat to share with everyone in class. She gave the class some clues to figure out what the surprise was..... (clues included.... we can use our 5 senses to identify it, it has 2 syllables, it starts with a /p/ sound.....). Mrs. Grant also brought us some hot chocolate!

Sliding fun!



We went outside before recess, grabbed some crazy carpets, and had so much fun sliding down our little hill!
  
      
  

We noticed that some of our clothes have patterns on them!
      
Someone sang the alphabet song and wrote the abc's without looking at anything for a reference!
 
Copying words...
  
We had a guest reader today!

We were detectives and had to listen to the clues to figure out which number from 1-20 that we needed to colour!
 
Sharing time...

WANTED:  Next month is "I Love to Read Month". I am looking for some parents or grandparents to volunteer to come into our class and read one or two of your favourite stories to our class. There are a lot of days in February, so I am sure we can find a day that works for you! Wouldn't it be great if we could have a different person come read to our class every day of the month!  If you have 20 minutes or so to spare, please let me know. We would love to have you stop by and read the class a story!
Thank you!

Weekend news

On Mondays, we often talk about what we did on the weekend. Here is what one person said he did on the weekend!

Sewing the snowman
      
Finding the letter /Bb/

the kids put these snowmen together.... and they showed different ways to represent the numbers...

these kids matched the lowercase to uppercase letters, and put them in alphabetical order (sorta)
