November turned into December before we even knew it!


We had a crazy busy month with lots of fun activities and events! At the end of November we danced as our favourite book characters and raised money for the school. Thank you for your support with this!













Baby Hana is getting big! She can roll over by herself, she is getting strong, and she tried baby cereal for the first time!






We started out spelling groups and they are going well! We sometimes use wiki sticks to practice our words.



This was a fun math scavenger hunt we did in partners to solve the word problems!





We were lucky enough to win the pizza party for the fundraising event, and our buddies won too!! So we all celebrated together with a pizza and movie party, complete with candy buffet! It was an awesome time!






 Baby Hana visited again before the holidays in her cute holiday outfit and had lots of giggles and smiles for us! We can't wait to see what she can do in the New Year.






Our last week we did several crafts, including a water color resist with pastels to make beautiful trees. Take a look!


I hope you all have a wonderful holiday and break! It has been a great first half to the school year and can't wait to hear about your winter break and all you did! Be safe and have fun!

Ps- Kids and Parents- what is your favourite holiday tradition??

Mine is receiving new PJ's on Christmas eve and on Boxing Day enjoying card games and french fry sandwiches at my grandparents house!

A busy start to November...

We have been doing lots of activities in November! We had a guest named Flat Stanley, who visited us from New Brunswick and we showed him around Winnipeg and now he is on his way back home with a special letter from us!


Mme Buchanan came and taught us about sounds and syllables to help us break down our 
French words.



With our Grade 1 Buddies, we made watercolour poppies to help decorate the Remembrance Day Ceremony.  






In Math, we have been playing some games to help us with our addition facts. It was a really fun way to learn!





Baby Hana learned lots of new things and we learned what a milestone is. She likes being on her belly now. Look at that big smile! :)


We presented our Science Projects to the class. We had so much fun seeing each one and playing with them. It was neat to see how each person did theirs.























We also started learning about increasing patterns in Math. We really like playing with the pattern blocks, a little too much maybe!



We are also working on a special project that we can't tell you about just yet. You will have to wait until Conferences to see what it is!


Question:

What is the farthest place you have ever traveled? What is the furthest place your parents have travelled! Help us by answering and we will out them on a map!

Remember, be kind! :)
