Winter Activity Day

EBEYS Winter Activity day is on Friday the 27th.  Please make sure your child is dressed for the weather.  We are looking forward to having fun enjoying time in the snow.  Let's keep our fingers crossed for suitable temperatures.  The students are going to be part of teams throughout the school or are going to help out with stations as grade 5 leaders.  Way to go guys!  There will be students from all grades on each team.  We will be making new friends and during the day we will be trading our bracelets, which will be handed out at the beginning of the day, with one new friend.

 

Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day to Everyone!

The students had a wonderful time celebrating Valentine's Day with the class.  Thank you to all the students and their families who contributed food and treats for our classroom party.  We played a game that Renee presented for her TUSC presentation.  She talked about a world record that we wanted to try.  The world record for most smarties picked up with chopsticks, blindfolded within a minute is 20.  Well, we changed the rules slightly and had a great time.  We did not blindfold anyone and the chopsticks we used had a spring on the end.  As luck would have it, Renee picked up the most smarties in a minute.  Way to go class and rise up for the challenge!  We also played musical chairs and the students were allowed to bring their electronics to school during the party.  The students enjoyed making their Valentine mailbox of their choice.  There were some really creative ones, so the students wanted to have a creative mailbox contest.  Congratulations to Evan!
