February



These are our hearts. We wrote something nice that we did on them for our kindness challenge. The trees in the middle are the people we love and like!



On this day we talked about the bison and we passed around parts of the bison's body. The important lesson that we learned was to use all the parts of the animal and not waste anything.



We did some research on Olympic gold medals!



We decorated a Valentine's box and exchanged cards.



This is when Mme Donna came and we looked at all of her pottery and the decorations. We were designing whistles to be arctic animals. Next time she comes, we will make our whistles on March 14. Mme Donna showed us her real narwhal tusk and we got to touch it! We learned that we shouldn't put tiny details on our pottery because it will be hard to see. Her pottery and the tusk are beautiful!



This is the Concours d'art oratoire and these students represented our class. It was nice to hear what everyone had to say in their speeches. We are very proud of all of our students for writing a speech and presenting it.



We are doing different math centres. There were four different centres: fractions, Reflex, multiplication game and the calculator game. They were fun and interesting!



One of the experiments that we did in science was learning about how light travels in a straight line.



We were mixing colours to make new colours.



We were seeing what it would look like if we put a straw in a glass of water. It looks bigger under water.



We had bags full of objects. We had a flashlight to see if the objects were transparent, translucent or opaque.



In the first picture, everyone was drawing and cutting out fractions to put them in order. In the second picture, we counted to see how many cinnamon hearts there were in the jar. Before we counted them we estimated how many we thought there were. The final count was 260, it was easier to count by 10's so we grouped them in 10's.



This was the pancake lunch and we got to eat pancakes, sausages, fruit punch and oranges!



On voyageur day we went to the library to look and touch at voyageur artifacts with M. Lacroix.



We played bingo.



We made tiny voyageur crafts.




We drank hot chocolate and ate bannock. It was delicious!
We also went outside for sledding and sled races. We also danced with Mme Lachance and Mme Pelletier!

We had an amazing month!
