Treasure Hunt
Excitement filled the halls on Tuesday as the class participated in a well-earned treasure hunt. Each clue had the children reading and walking around the school. The children loved discovering and walking through the maze. The treasure was found and divvied up amongst the class. I think I loved it as much as the children.
Groundhog Day
The students made their Spring predictions for Groundhog Day on Thursday. We then watched how Wiarton Willie and Punxsutawney Phil predicted an early Spring and a late Spring, respectively. The class predictions showed most of the class thinking it will be a late Spring.
Math
The children have been busy working on addition and subtraction facts this week. On Thursday, we practised math facts by playing fun math games. Quinn, our school social worker, even joined in on the fun.
Friendship Club
Here is a sneak peak at the new Grade One Friendship Club with Ms. Beswick. All the children have the option of taking part each Wednesday during the first recess. No sign up is needed.
Team Building Activity
How does a class finish off the week on a bitterly cold day with no outdoor recess? You get together with 1B to do a team-building activity. Ms. Karissa challenged the children to pass a hula hoop around the circle while holding hands with each other. The students did it as one big group and then made two smaller circles to move the hula hoop. Two Grade six students came to help the classes with this activity. It was so much fun!
