Completed Christmas Tree
We completed our tree this morning using the colourful snowflakes that the students made. It is a beautiful tree.
Classroom Kindness
Many thanks to the parents of Gary for donating items for the classroom Happy Box. Their kindness is much appreciated.
Walk like a Penguin
After reading Penguin Chicks by Betty Tatham, a few of the girls used the balls as eggs and waddled like daddy penguins. Adorable.

Students practiced the -at family of words today. We changed the beginning sound as we explored spelling patterns to create rhyming words. We even made silly sentences that made us laugh.

Time for Kids - Edel Rodriguez
We began a new unit about penguins and serendipitously an issue of Time for Kids this month was about Edel Rodriguez the creator/illustrator of Sergio the soccer loving penguin.
After reading about Edel and Sergio, students had the opportunity to draw their own penguins.
