February 3

Can you believe it is almost half way through the school year.  On February 17 we will celebrate the 100th day of school.  

This morning we went on a half hour winter walk.  This is an initiative celebrated by many schools throughout Alberta.  It was beautiful morning and we enjoyed our time outside.

This morning we also had a presentation from Laura Oh who is a Speech and Language Pathologist who works at Cranston School with many students.  Today she talked about Good Communication Skills.  We learned how to use an appropriate rate of speech and volume, to always look at the person we are talking to and how important our body language is.

In math we started talking about shapes.  We looked at a variety of shapes and played a "Guess the Shape" game in partners.  Please ask your child how we played this game.  

At the end of the day we started to explore our Magnet centres.  

Book orders have been sent home and are due on Monday.
