help figure out the parts.

Some assorted math activities.

birthday.  
Happy birthday Xander!

Xander brought some delicious
cupcakes to share with is friends
on his birthday!  Thank you Xander!

Our school is having a door
decorating contest.  
We made a beautiful snowman.

We went to a presentation
from the Milk Foundation.  
Yum Yums and Fussy Pants helped
Jessica teach on the importance
of healthy foods.

The Gingerbread theme has
taken over the classroom.  
The children decorated the
display table!

We have a little tree in the
hallway which we are beginning
to create Christmas ornaments
to decorate it.

This year as we have been 
learning about community helpers
 each child chose a community
 helper to make their gingerbread about.
  Then they traced a house template
 and created a house. They told me
 one thing they knew about that
 community helper which I typed up for them.




As I read Gingerbread stories, 
 we are completing a story map.
 This is a great way to increase
 comprehension about the story. 
 The children know there will be
 questions and listen intently to be able 
to answer the questions. After 
answering the questions we put a
 storyboard out in the hallway.

The gingerbread boy and girl 
were in the classroom but disappeared
 leaving only a note before we could eat them.


White boards are a favorite learning
 activity in the class.
We always do some sounds
, sight words, and numbers before
 the children have some free 
minutes to create what they wish.

Hour of Code, the grade 7’s were our helpers.
Thanks for the help.


Some learning centre pictures!
