January

We created pirate island maps with orange peel prints. 

We practiced our pirate concert a lot!

It was awesome and we hope you enjoyed our concert!

We wrote about our marvelous friends and then read our writing with a partner to check for capitals and periods. We had a checklist for editing and revising. 

Adrien Sala came to read us books for I love to read month. 

We did some drawings of frogs!

Here we are asking each other questions in French for our surveys. Soon we will make graphs based on our results. 

We solved math problems using digit cards.

We learned a multiplication dice game, whoever gets the biggest product wins!

We are exploring rocks and minerals using a magnifying glass. 

We learned about Carroll diagrams and sorted some rocks. 

Mme Renee came to talk about ribbon skirts and shirts and we designed our own.

We read The Lonely Inukshuk in French and heard some words in Inuktitut. 

We made our own inukshuk art projects. 

We loved the free perogies!

Lots of brain breaks this month with all the indoor recess!

 

December

We are learning about fractions. 

We did some tangram puzzles and lots of problem solving. We are also working on multiplication!

We worked hard on our winter sports themed art projects for the bulletin board. 

We read a book and then built our own creations. 

Some students shared stories with the class. 

More building for the Santa challenge. 

Teamwork!

We made posters and practiced a play. We performed it for the class using some props and lots of expression. 

We decorated gingerbread cookies and them we wrote the steps out in French. 

Mmm, samosas!

We had so much fun the gym!

We are practicing for the Pirates show coming up in January. 

Pyjama Day!

On the last day we made crafts with our book buddies in grade 2 and we played lots of games!

Happy Holidays!
