This week we made cards for our teacher last year, Mrs. Shields and her son Owen! Owen came to visit us for Roots of Empathy! We gave him a present - it was a snow dog with antlers and we also got him a christmas ornament for his tree that says Roots of Empathy and chocolates for Mrs. Shields (and her husband, if she shares haha).
This week we did a water colour painting of the sunset over the Atlantic ocean. Once we were done painting, we got a plain black piece of paper and cut out shapes for lighthouses, boats, rocks and birds and then we glued them on. The reason why we did black paper was because it was a silhouette.
This is the finished product:
Today Ms. Moffatt put up a video of a fire on the Smart board - but it wasn't a real fire, just a video! We read books together and listened to music by the fire this morning. It was peaceful
This week we started GINGERBREAD WEEK!!!
So far, we've done gingerbread math centres like the iPad, the smart board patterning, measuring with gingerbread men, candy graphing and MANY more...
NEXT WEEK... We are making gingerbread houses that we can eat! AND we're going to do some more gingerbread FUN activities...
Only 5 more school days left until WINTER BREAK!
Love,
Room 40
