February is "I Love to Read" month!

 

We are enjoying sharing the books that we have read on our, "Reading Takes You Places" bulletin board.  Students are enthusiastic and fill in their book info whenever they finish reading a book. We add to it daily. Good job Room 156!

Wear Orange on Wednesday

 

We read a true story about a little girl who wore an orange shirt, which was very special to her, on her first day of residential school.  Ask your child what happened and why they call it, Orange Shirt Day.

An interesting substitute for Saran Wrap...

 

This beeswax food wrap can be used as an environmentally friendly substitute for saran wrap.  It can be used for two years and when you throw it away, it decomposes quickly.  The warmth of your hand will mold the paper into any shape you want, sealing containers, bowls, etc.  I ordered mine online.  The class thought it was such a great idea to keep our earth HEALTHY and CLEAN.

Spelling and Reading program are starting TODAY!

 Your child will come home with the words of the week.  Our quiz will be on Friday.  Please read the letter and helpful study hints that your child brought home on Friday.  Your child will come home with a spelling homework page.  Please hand in on Friday. 

Also, add minutes to your reading logs.  Remember, 20 minutes     
adds up to 100 AIR MILES.  Our goal is to fly around the world.  We are starting in North America and our first stop will be South America.

Our art classes created DOT Art

 

September 15 is DOT day! Let's get CREATIVE!

 

Why do we celebrate Dot Day?

International Dot Day is staged to encourage people of all ages to harness their creativity. The inspiration behind the event is the children's book The Dot by Peter H. Reynolds.

Find something in your closet that has dots on it:)

Welcome Back to School Grade 3/4 Students!

 

Treat Others the Way you would like to be TREATED

Thank you for DOING your PART during Covid19

Thank you for doing your part during the Covid19 pandemic.  Our numbers in Manitoba are really low, so that shows that Manitobans, like you, are doing your part to keep the virus away.  We miss you and if we continue to wash our hands, stay home as much as possible, eat healthy and keep a 2 metre distance from others, we will see each other in September!

STAY SAFE and do your PART

Skating Fun!

Ms. Bradley was a guest reader in our classroom during, "I Love to Read" month.  We enjoyed listening to her and the message the book gave us.  A big thank you to Ms. Bradley!


Also, Mr. Feilberg and Mr. Stevenson came to read to us.  Mr. Feilberg talked about loving to read comic books as a child and showed us other types of genres that he enjoys.  His brother even wrote and illustrated a book that he showed us.  The illustrations were really creative.  Mr. Stevenson came and read us a number solving book.  It was challenging to come up with the answers.  It definitely stretched our thinking.  A big thank you to him as well!
