Magnet Mania!!!

Nevaya- We started the week by working in a booklet about Magnets!



Kenny- We learned about static electricity and the difference between this and magnetism! We used balloons, and different objects and materials to see what attracts to the balloons!


Carson- It was fun rubbing the balloon on Mme Gaunce's head!



 Deanna- Some things stick, and some things don't! The light and thin things made of paper stuck!



Jovan- We went to our last day of swimming and it was so fun!


Justin- I learned to jump in the water! I am REALLY good at floating on my back :)


Liam- We used magnets to paint.It was really fun. We used the primary colours- red, yellow and blue! At first it looked like a big glob!


Nick- We made peace doves to represent the Peace Keepers around the world that help bring peace to us and the people of the world. 








Nick spoke at the ceremony on behalf of our class! Take a listen…



Connor- We brought our trophy in to school. We won it in double overtime. We wanted to share it with the class. 


And last but not least…we made out own magnetic mazes! Each of us chose a special theme and got creative! Hockey was a popular theme :) We are going to present them to our Grade 1 buddies!

Mme Gaunce- I am very proud of each of the projects you made and the effort you put in to your work!










   
Find your way through to Dana's house in the maze about! 

Keep up the great work mrs petits hiboux…Hoot! Hoot!

Until next time, be kind :)

Halloween, Costumes, and Candy..Oh My!

        Just when we think the weeks can't get busier, they do! This week we did many fun things, including some Art projects, Math with candy, swimming fun, and Halloween party, followed by PJ day! Take a look at all we have been up to!

                            


           We used "Scaries' candy to solve some Math addition and estimation problems!…Then we ate them of course :)

           Next in Art, we have been learning about Peace Keepers and Remembrance Day. Our class was chosen to create decorations to be placed around the gym for our school assembly. Here is a peek at what we are working to complete:


 We are creating Peace Doves to make a garland to hang around the gym!

And because it was Halloween we made some funny skeletons, and personalized them a little bit ;)





We only have one more week left to go swimming, and we sure have been enjoying it!


Check out this video of Liam swimming! His group was practicing life saving skills in the pool!



 After Swimming we celebrated Halloween together with a class party and parade in the gym! Thanks again to the parents who volunteered to help and the ones that came to see the parade! We had a fun day and I loved seeing all the costumes!


 The little Mermaid came by, along with a pretty messy hockey player!..

 We had lots of protection with our Ninjas and Super Heroes...


…and Mary Poppins even dropped in!

 We love Halloween :)




But boy were we tired after this week!…..Until next time….Zzzzzzzzzzz





Hoot Hoot...

Our Owls of the Week last week were Connor and Deanna….take a peek at their video, there may be something special at the end ;)
