Happy Thursday!!

We had a fantastic day!!!
In the morning we had gym class, snacks and morning circle time with Aidan presenting his show and tell.
Next, we played the game "beat the clock" where JKs had to say as many letter sounds as they could in one minute. They did a fantastic job!
Then we worked on short words where they had to cut and paste letters in order to build words matching the picture.












After lunch and recess we had French and practiced our song for arts night.
In our UOI we looked into safety road and made traffic lights using tissue paper.

After second lunch and recess we had reading buddies.

Happy Wednesday!

We had a great day!
In the morning JKs had gym class, snacks and morning circle time with Sabrina presenting her show and tell.
Next, we had music class with Ms. Hayward and right after we had some time to practice our arts night song.
In the afternoon we made a graph together about how we come to school...by bus, by car or walking...
After collecting the data we analyzed and came to the conclusion that all of us come to school by car. :)
Next, we worked on CVC words. JKs used alphabet stamps, play doh and cut and paste in order to build short words. We are getting ready for the spelling bee!!! :)
