Highlights of the Day:
We began our day by playing a fun new math game called race to ten, where, after rolling a die, we tried to be the first to fill our ten-frames with blocks! We had a fantastic time in the library today, as we were allowed to take out two books for the first time! Please remember to return both books for next week! After library, we talked about how we can overcome things we find difficult as long as we keep on trying! After recess, we had literacy centres, followed by gym! After lunch, we had another fabulous French class with Mme. Pallesen! We then explored and asked questions about the season Autumn-- why do leaves fall? Why and how do they change colour? Why do different places have seasons at different times? We finished the day by reading the book "The Leaf Man" and making our own Leaf Men out of leaf rubbings!
Book Fair:
Scholastic is holding a book fair in our very own library next week! The viewings will be on Wednesday and Thursday next week with sales at the parent/teacher conferences on Thursday evening and Friday morning.
Mail Pockets:
- No new mail went home today, so mail pockets remained at school..
