Our Free Little Libraries were revealed today at our celebration! Thank you to all the parents who sent food and to the parents who were able to join us this morning. We are so proud of this work and give special thanks to our grade nine friends who built our plans!

We were searching for ants to put in our ant farm. Catching them was much harder than we thought. We watched two ants communicating with their antenna, we think they were making an escape plan.

Today in writing we reflected on what we had learned in grade one and two. Look what our grade one students wrote!

An important note went home in agendas today! I found a few left on the floor so if you didn’t receive one please let me know.

Rocks are starting to arrive! The top rock in the photo is the correct size. It needs to be about the size of an adult hand. The rock on the bottom is an example of a rock that’s too small. It will be difficult for us to do the art on a rock that is small.

Class photos tomorrow! For real this time 😉

Using a new medium for art today. Water colour pencil crayons were tricky to use as we painted our tree. We went outside to see what changes have occurred and we are wondering if our tree would make a good wishtree....

Math Challenge today = Can you make a face using the cuisinaire rods so that the rods will have a sum of 100?

[MPS Mrs. Harrison @MPSgr1Harrison]

Can I tell you about the caterpillar's in Alberta? I can tell you what I think should be done or not done and please tell me your opinion?

“Trees can’t tell jokes. But we can certainly tell stories. And if all you hear is the whisper of leaves, don’t worry. Most trees are introverts at heart.” We started a new novel today. We worked hard to create a four star response to what we visualized when we listened.

[MPS Mrs. Harrison @MPSgr1Harrison]

Today we explored with cuisinaire rods. Students quickly discovered that there is a relationship between the rods. Students were asked to assign a number to each rod and prove that they are correct. “The green is a 3, look it’s a red plus a white...2+1 it’s the same as 3.”

We are enjoying our new recess time ... it’s nice to have the playground all to ourselves!

Tomorrow is Thursday already! We have library exchange...we have only a couple of more library exchanges until all books are due back, so pack them up to get new ones while we can. 😊

[MPS Mrs. Harrison @MPSgr1Harrison]

Math today- we worked on vertical surfaces to solve this word problem. Look at the different ways we attacked the problem!

[MPS Mrs. Harrison @MPSgr1Harrison]

Fun Lunch forms came home today. Mrs H. was away Thursday so we have been granted an extra day to return the orders with payment. They are due tomorrow for us!!!
