We had many visitors sharing with us about different cultures, languages, dances, delicious food and unique experiences from that country. We have decided to let the train stay in Canada, we will put our luggage bags away for now. Who knows what other adventures await in Rm. 14!

Today we looked at safety pictures and discussed what we saw! We were reminded to obey the traffic signals, look both ways before crossing the road -walk don't run, cross with a grownup or an older student (with parent permission) don't cross alone,cross at lights and crosswalks!

Easter art using dabs of paint. We used "spring colours" (yellow, light blue, pink, and light green"). We took the squeegee and dragged the paint down the paper ... They look egg-cellent!

What's your favourite thing about spring? Blooming flowers was something that lots of friends shared! To welcome spring, we thought we'd make some flower petal prints! Beautiful!

What a day we had exploring the Art Gallery at N.A MacEachern's March Break Extended Day. We talked about a variety of art forms and took time to appreciate that we are all unique artists. And of course our grand opening wasn't complete without a red ribbon cutting! Classy right?
