Christmas Time!!!

Hi Parent's!!

What a great week to start off the fun and excitement of the holidays!! 

Our Christamas concert was a HUGE success.  The students worked hard learning their songs and actions and were amazing!

Thank you to all the families who brought items in for our Christmas bags.  We spent the week decorating the bags and filling the with items for students in Grade 1 that may not be getting much.

We know that animals adapt to colder weather, but how do we adapt in Calgary?  We came up with a lot of different ways!!

Our math and literacy centres are always part of our day!  We started our special project to share with you in the Assembly we are hosting on DEC 21!!!

Rainbow day was a big success!  We had so many colours on and used our math skills to find out which colour was the most popular.  BLUE was the winner!

Reminders

Report cards go home Wednesday December 19th

Assembly will be Friday Dec 21 at 9:15.  Parents are welcome to come watch. We will be sharing our learning as well as students from around the school.

Club Friday is also on the same Friday and school will go until 11:45 as usual.

Week of December 7!

Hi Mom and Dad!

The month of December is in full swing and as always is a busy one!!!

This week we had the opportunity to see the Kinders perform their Christmas concert and we have been working hard practicing our own songs!

We did a fun writing activity with the book "I Don't Want to be a Frog!".  The frog wanted to be every animal but the one he was.   We were able to choose what animals we wanted to be and reasons or characteristics about why would couldn't be that animal.   There was a lot of great animals we came up with!

We have been working on how animals get ready for the winter and the changes they make.  Whether they Hibernate, Migrate or Adapt, animals all do something!  We've done a good job brainstorming animals and researching what animals do what!

On Thursday we worked with our Buddy Class and created our "Christmas Sweaters" out of paper.  In honour of Christmas sweater day on Monday, they are hanging on the bulletin board in the HUB!

Reminders

Items for our Christmas bags are due tomorrrow!!  We're hoping as many people as possible can help support some students who may not receive gifts this season.

Christmas concert is Thursday December 13 at 6:30pm.    Our afternoon dress rehearsal will be at 1pm on Thursday.  No tickets are required for that.

Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!!
