Last Post of the Year

Good morning my fabulous friends!

It's hard to believe the school year is already over. I wish we could have all spent the last few months together, but I am grateful that we could still talk to one another online and persevere through this with each other! I hope that the sunshine and summer activities bring you positivity and happiness during your summer holiday's. 

Here are some of my favourite memories from this year! 



Meeting each other in September! 







Reading together! 

Terry Fox Run! 





Making Sculptures










Community Walks

I really enjoyed teaching and spending time with each and every one of you this school year! Enjoy your summer with your friends and family.

Good morning radiant rainbows! 

I had so much fun during Harry Potter week. That special project we worked on looks great and I'm sure it will make someone very happy this weekend. 







Here is some great work from this week! 

Math:
















On Sunday June 21, it is National Indigenous People's Day. Take time to show your appreciation for their unique and special culture. You could read a book with your family (like one listed below) and have a conversation about what you learned about their culture. You could also go on a nature walk and find a lovely place to sit and appreciate all the beauty around you. This would be a great opportunity to take time for self reflection and gratitude as well. We are so lucky to live in a country with so much diversity, and opportunities to learn and grow our appreciation for all of the different cultures that make up Canada's identity.

Good Afternoon Splendid Strawberries! 🍓

I had such a great week with you all. I have really enjoyed reading your work around story writing, response to the kindness reading, measurement and especially the water filtration experiments! It was so great that we could learn from our guest speakers from Inside Education before we created our own water filter! What did you like about the presentation?

Hello my fantastic friends! 

It was such a cozy week, I hope you enjoyed our Google Meet this week. The grade 1/2 teachers decided early in the week that we should change it up and do something fun! Don't forget to send me any pictures that your parents may have taken of you during comfy/cozy week. They might even make the year book!!

Aloha!

Well, we have officially completed our 8th week of online learning! You (and your families) all deserve a big round of applause and lots of air high fives. It has been great to see all the "waves" you are persevering during this time and showing how resilient you are. You are all rocking it! 

This week, I was as happy as a clam during our beach themed week, even if we didn't quite have the sunny beach weather. It was great to see all of the hard work you have put into your time capsules so far and hear about all of your wonderful ideas!

 

Here is some fabulous work that was submitted this week:

🎉 Everyone is Great in Room Eight! 🎉

Hello friends! 

I had so much fun during Jersey Week with all of you! I think Room 8 deserves a special jersey, we are my favourite team! 😊



I hope you all enjoyed your learning tasks this week. I was really impressed to see and hear about your designs for your geometric dream homes. You are all doing a great job of using the checklist to support your planning and drawing your shapes neatly. I can't wait to see all the finished products. I have also been entertained and inspired by your writing this week. The pieces of writing that have been submitted so far are very creative stories. Well done everyone!

Enjoy some samples of work from this week:
