Alphabet & Animal Reports!

Boy, has our ABC Countdown made our last few days even more exciting! This week we enjoyed M, N, O, P and Q!

M - Magazines

The students enjoyed relaxing with Chirp, Highlights, Chickadee and more!




N - Nature Walk

Did some deep breathing and strolling! The 3R class had measured out 1/2km, so we followed their path and walked there and back to make 1km! International playground laws state that when you pass a hill, you must roll down ... so we did!




O - One Hundred's Chart Tic-Tac-Toe
Students were partnered up and received a blank 100's chart. Using two different colours, students tried to fill in the numbers on the chart ... three in a row! 


P - Paper Airplanes and Puzzles

We watched a super YouTube on how to make a simple airplane! The we got busy folding and throwing! The planes were an absolute blast! A Pokemon puzzle also kept us challenged!




Q - Quiet Time in the Chapel
Today we plan to end off our busy week with quiet prayer and reflection as a little classroom community. We love our Chapel!


Amazing Animal Reports

As we prepare for our end of year field trip to the zoo, the children were challenged to learn more about an an animal of their choosing! They drew and labelled a detailed diagram of their animal and wrote three facts with accompanying illustrations. We used the San Diego Zoo Kids website to help us with our research.



This was not an easy project, but we rose to the challenge! Students navigated challenging text, gathered information, wrote complete sentences, and illustrated with detail. Wowzers!





Watch for your child's animal report to come home! Happy reading!
