More Gymnastics

Here are a few more photos Ms L took of us during our time in gymnastics. We are very thankful to have had this opportunity which was provided to us by our parent group.

Gymnastics

We have been very luck to have been able to take part in a gymnastics program for the past four weeks. Today each class had a few students show what they have been up to.  While only six of us could show off for the entire school they represented everyone in our class. Take a look at what we can do.


Thank you Catherine for being such a fantastic gymnastics coach these past four weeks. We learned so much from you.

Planting Potatoes

Today we spent the afternoon planting our seed potatoes. Hopefully before school gets out for the year we will have potatoes to eat. 

Have you ever planted seed potatoes before?

Reading with Friends Two Provinces Over

The grade one students have been practicing their Elephant and Piggie books to read with a friend two provinces over via Skype. How you may ask? Ms Lirenman and Ms Cassidy have arranged for us to read the same book with someone in each class.  As you can imagine it adds an exciting twist to "read to someone".

Writing Stories Through Code

This week we have been working on writing stories using Scratch Jr on the iPad.  It wasn't easy and for those of us that joined the class since January it was our first time coding.  Here are a  few images from of our stories.

Don't worry there are more stories still to come.

Claymation

We have been working in small groups to create our own versions of the story about the three little pigs through claymation. This was a first for both us and Ms. Lirenman.  A couple of groups are finished with one more to be completed.  Keep checking back as Ms. L. Will have highlights of each of our videos. In the meantime if you are eager to see the two completed projects check  them out here and here.  These are some images of us working hard.

Valentine's Day

Last week we had a lovely time sharing Valentine's Day with each other. Here are a few photos from our afternoon party.
