Wacky Winter Fun!

Our Winter focus in Science continues to be lots of fun!

Recently we began exploring what people do in Winter. 

We got our creative juices flowing when Mrs. Beliveau read Snow Day. In the book, a "snow day" is declared and kids must stay home from school! The children in the book do loads of fun seasonal activities, which became an excellent conversation starter for our class!


Then, Mrs. Beliveau promised we could do those Winter activities we just read about! Ski, sled, build a snowman, skate ... but how?

First, we brainstormed winter activities we enjoy doing. 



Then the boys and girls dressed in their warm woollies and posed as if they were doing a snowy activity! Can you guess what winter activity these kids are acting out?



Next, students focused their efforts on writing a complete sentence about their activity, 



they each chose a whimsical Winter background, 





and glued their cutout with a few construction paper details to complete the picture!



Look at what we made! 


We sure do know what people do in Winter!
