Land and Water

This past week we continued our Land and Water science unit, we explored what happens to both land and water when it rains.  The students modeled rain by squeezing a bottle of water over the land, discussing the changes, and writing about their observations.

Welcome Back!

To ring in the New Year, we completed a selfie project where we wrote about our goals for 2016 and drew a selfie of our face.  I let students take their own selfie if they wanted :)

Smile :)

Our pic for Ugly Sweater Day, these two pictures are what happens when you have a 7 year old snap the photo :P

Our nice holiday picture, Mrs. F was back to take this for us.

Get silly!

Holiday Events

We began by having a whole-school movie morning, where we watched Snow Buddies with our blankets and stuffed animals.  In the afternoon, we had our coin drive reveal, as well as the brass choir join us for some Christmas tunes.

A grand total of  $2,545.31 collected in our Kid-to-Kid Coin Drive!  Good job Marion-Walker!

528 Candy Bars for families in need.

And although hard to see, our class came out ON TOP, we collected the most money out of all classes in the school!!!!! I am so proud of all my students for helping to collect and donate money for such a great cause!  I am so lucky to have such amazing students!

Our award for being the top class :)  Please let me know if you did not see this come home.

We sang many  holiday songs, no better way to put us in the Christmas spirit!

We engaged in the 12 days of Christmas, Mrs. Carroll style, which involved all sorts of different exercises.  Ian and Logan were selected to go up front and help out.

                                         

Push-ups (well, those who could find the room).

Jumping jacks

                                     

The Grinch even joined us!

Snowman Games!

As a whole-school reward and celebration, the different grade levels engaged in Snowman Games.  There was snowman bowling, dress a friend as a snowperson relay, and cutting & decorating snowflakes.  We had so much fun!

Strike!
