Morning Chores by MitchellWhat an awesome day.  We started off the day by jumping on the bus, and driving to Newcastle with the grades 2 and 3 students to deliver food to the foodbank.  Its nice to see where that food that we've been collecting goes.  Did you know the food bank serves over 400 families on the river?  Thats a lot of help!  We got back just in time to run our bake sale at little recess and have choir practice!  After recess we had math.  We continued to work on adding and mental math with friendly numbers.  What is a friendly number?  We stayed inside today because it was -20 at lunch!  BRRRR!!!  We had Mrs. McCarthy after lunch.  Do you remember what we worked on.  It was round but not a circle.  Then we had a visit from Mr. Savoy!  Something cool always happens when he's around!  We had our first official Mystery Skype!  Lillian noticed something that helped us alot.  Do you remember what she saw?  It was a hard game because we were playing against a grade 5 class!  Guess who won?  Do you remember where the other class was from?  After our Mystery Skype (stay tuned for some pictures), we had cupcakes that Ryan brought in to celebrate something.  I think I have it marked on the calendar, but I cant remember now.  We finished off the day with 15 minutes of free time, and then did our closing activities.  Tomorrow we have SKATING AT 10:00 AT THE LBA.  On the off chance that there is a snow storm we will NOT be skating on Thursday.  We only have the LBA booked for Wednesday.  We will also clean up our bake sale tomorrow as we have some extra goodies to sell.  Thursday the Choir is putting on a little show and Friday is our last day of school for 2013.  Get lots of rest and dress warm!  See you tomorrow!
