Shrek.... October 17th

On October 17th we had the opportunity to go to brandon to view a live play ....Shrek.  It was a great day and everyone enjoyed the show and took home a valuable lesson about acceptance from the play.

A big thankyou to PAC and RRFN for supporting our school on this trip! 

Giving thanks..... School community groups and thankful tree

After our delicious turkey lunch, the students split into the school wide community groups and talked about all the things we have to be thankful for.  Each student and staff member wrote on a leaf things they were thankfulk for and then hung their leaf on the trees in the school foyer!  They look amazing!

Thanksgiving lunch at school...

Thank you to everyone who made this possible:)

Here are some pictures of our walk!

 

Our classroom belief statement

The past couple weeks we have talked a lot about what we want our classroom to look like, sound like and feel like.    

We came up with our belief statement from our ideas from group work on this topic.   Everyone signed the statement and it hangs in our classroom.  I am proud of our statements and our class!

We believe......

In Respecting each other, other's property and the earth

That no one should be left out no matter what their differences

In being role models by doing the right thing even when no one is looking.

Math Website - Sumdog!

On Friday we took a look at a website called SUMDOG, that allows the kids to work on their basic math skills.  
Each student gets their own Avatar's and they can dress and change their appearances and clothing.  The more correct answers they give,  the more points they get to go shopping in the store.

The great think about this website is that it adjusts to each students ability level.  From my end I can post challenges and competitions for our class to compete in, as well as monitor students progress.

For those that have Internet at home - this can be used anytime.  All the students need is their log in and password information - which we glued into our planner front page on Friday.

I have used this before with our classrooms - and the kids have loved it and also improved their math skills.

We will be using it off and on as a math center in class, or when we finish our work early.
I encourage students to use it at home as well!

The kids can play against other kids from our class, if they are online - or can play against other kids worldwide!!

One competition is all ready set up for our class....  and closes on October 15th.  The top three students will get a prize !!

Happy Sumdoging :)
