Great website

A great online game is 'Dog's Letter Pit', from PBSkids.org. It is an awesome website for sound blending/ segmenting. This is an important skill especially for our sk's who will be entering grade one next year.

Bear

Today Ruby's bear helped Mrs. Nicholls get some centres ready for next week. Bear helped type out some sight words on the computer. He also went to the library to help Mrs. Nicholls look for some new books.

Earth Hour

Since our class has no windows, we came up with an alternate way to honour Earth Hour. We shut the lights off in the hallway and brought out our favourite books. Here are some pictures!

We love to write

The students have really begun to enjoy writing. During centre time, there are many tables filled with students writing. Here are some pictures of today's centre time. This is so exciting!!

Diving into addition

What is in a shell?

Today Mrs. Kidd brought in some shells from her vacation to Florida. The students loved exploring the shells in the water centre. Carter asked what is in a shell. The students wanted to explore clams and oysters some more, so we went straight to the Smartboard.

Car patterning

Today we read a story about a girl named Molly who played with her brother's toy cars, even after he asked he not to. Molly created many patterns with the toy cars, but managed to put them back before her brother saw them. During centre time some friends chose to create their own car patterns. Check them out!

Yum! Pizza!

Here are some great shots of the students at work!
