Our Week at a Glance!

Thank goodness the sun has finally come outs for us this week! We will be sure to take advantage of it and do some of our learning outside in the fresh air when possible:)

Today the students wrapped up their beaver research by reading through books and other sources of information to find interesting facts about this large rodent. Tomorrow we will begin to compile our information on its diet, appearance, habitat and interesting facts to create a class book. The students have learned a lot; ask your child to share an interesting fact about Canada's favourite animal.

We even have our very own Beaver Mascots in both classrooms that the students can have sit on their desk when they are working particularly hard, or when the students want to practice their letter writing by sending letters to our little friends. We voted and learned how to complete a bar graph in order to decide on the best names for our mascots. The boy is Beavie and the girl is Cutesie! They have been a wonderful addition to the learning environment:)

This afternoon we have Steven Harmer here to do a special magic show for all the students and staff at Ken Taylor school! Ask your child what the best part of the show was.

Wednesday is HAT DAY for Mental Health Awareness! Students may wear any hat to school to support mental health awareness.

Hope everyone has a wonderful week and enjoys this wonderful weather!
