Our Indoor Carnival


We had an indoor carnival the last day before our break. There were many activities including basketball and a hockey shoot, snakes and ladders, pillow fights, a fish pond, face painting, and golf, just to name a few. There were also good things to eat like popcorn and all kinds of baking. we had an exciting and tiring afternoon, and it was a great way to end the week.

Decorating Easter Eggs


We decorated Easter eggs with our grade 6 buddies. We had a lot of fun decorating and visiting, and we didn't even break one egg!

Rabbits!


Today for show and tell we had three baby bunnies come to our classroom. They were three weeks old and still crawled along with their tummies close to the ground. They were not scared of us at all, and we all got to pet them. They were very cute and we really enjoyed having them come to our class. We also read several books about rabbits, watched a video, and did a shared writing activity listing all of the things we learned about rabbits.

Farm Safety Presentation


We had a farm safety presentation this week. The kindergarten class and Class 1.2 came to our room to listen to the presentation with us. We learned many things that we should and should not do to keep ourselves safe at home.

Day of Pink


Wednesday was "pink day", and a lot of us wore pink and signed each others pink shirts (real or paper ones) to show that we were taking a position against intolerance and bullying.

Show and Tell


When we have show and tell we often use the document camera because it helps everyone see the things we brought to show. We can even zoom in and make the object bigger if it is tiny.

We painted spring pictures with class 1.2, and although some of us went home with a bit of paint on our clothes, we had a lot of fun!
