What a busy day at Ian Baillie Primary. We started off the day with the choir being called to the gym for a practice. With half of the grade two practicing for choir, we combien the remaining grade two students and practiced our songs for the Concert which has now been moved to Monday Dec 14th.

When the choir members returned we went over our songs a final time and did a quick drawing of Olaf from Frozen. We came back to the classroom and hit the reset button and we completed our regular morning routine. Our spelling word was "Christmas", our "First," with two detail sentences was for a story "How to Sing a Song". We doodled a cow, and got ready for recess. After recess we stayed in the classroom. We did a language arts round of Read to self. We checked in and did another 3 minute round with our jackets and chairs upsidedown. Were you comfortable? Will you do your read to self like that again? Next we a did a round of Math with a friend. We took turns being a judge and telling math stories to our partners.

We did a check in, and then took an early break because today was the Christmas Dinner in the gym. The Culinary Class from JMH came down, prepared the meal, and served it. It was amazing. After lunch we came back to the classroom. We took a quick look at the school twitter account @IBP_School and answered some question for a class in Colorado about Canada, then we checked out the ir class webpage. They look like they do lots of cool stuff in their class! The gym was full of tables and chairs, so instead of PE we made Christmas Art with Mrs. Hache (or her supply teacher), until we were called to the gym to meet a VERY special guest! We finished off the day with our book of gratitude and getting our agenda's signed. I also handed out a few of the marshmallow challenge kits. Its not too late to bring in your form and get a kit to work on for the weekend! Get lots of sleep, dress warm, and I will see you in the morning!
