The Day of the Science Fair!
Good afternoon everyone,
We began the day with circle time. After this, we reviewed what we learned about density, using our science experiment as an example. As a class, we went over our hypothesis, materials, procedure and conclusion. We did this until lunch, which began a little earlier today because of the science fair.
After lunch, we worked on a few letters worksheets and also on some worksheets that worked on our fine motor skills. We had another lunch and then French class. After French, we went to present our science project in front of parents, students and judges. This went very well. We also got to see all the different experiments conducted by other students.
When we finished, we came back to the classroom, had story time and silent reading until home time.
A reminder that ALL FIELD TRIP FORMS/MONEY (including parent volunteer money - $15) are DUE by THIS FRIDAY!!!!
Have a wonderful night!!

Happy International Travel Day!
Good afternoon everyone,
First of all, I'd like to thank everyone for bringing in a food item for our special day. Everything tasted amazing and the food selection was so diverse. Although it was a first for many students to try foods of different cultures, they enjoyed it very much.
We began the day with language and worked on the letter Yy.
Following this, we began International Travel Day. Our first activity was our travel to Hawaii. There, we made grass skirts. They turned out great!
Next, we travelled to Italy and made some yummy looking pasta necklaces!
Following lunch, we experienced yummy foods from different countries. For example, gatia and sev from India, Spanish Empanadas, shrimp and pork dumplings from China, spinach fritatta from Brazil, ham and egg sushi from Korea, vegetable samosas from Pakistan, and cheese pizza from Italy.
Everything was sooo yummy!
After this, we had French and Music class.
Following second lunch, we travelled to Brazil to play soccer. Following this, we came back inside and decorated our own flags from Kenya... where Miss H. was born and resided for half her life!
Again, thank you all for making this day happen... we couldn't have done it without each of you!
Have a great long weekend :)
A reminder: Toronto Zoo field trip forms/money are due NEXT Friday!

We began the day with circle time. Following this, we did our experiment two more times, each time with different quantities of water and oil. We also drew diagrams based on our observations of each test.

We sang a new Jolly Phonics song and then did two worksheets on the letter Yy. Following this was lunch when we had a Pizza lunch. After lunch, we had gym class and practiced our song for Arts Night.
To end the day, we had centers.
A reminder that tomorrow is International Travel Day. Don't forget to bring in a food item!!!! :)
