Cat by MikeyToday was a very cool day! The weather was great, we had guest speakers, and we had lots of fun! We started off the day by going downstairs to the library to change our books. After libary we came back to the class and did our opening activeities. We worked on showing the difference between an old man and a wizard, and we doodled a cat shown to us by Nolan at JMH. Then we jumped right into math. We review thow to tell time on an analog clock and the formula for perimeter. Do you what that is? (P=s+s+s) Then we went outside! Five degrees seems very warm when you are used to it being minus twenty! After outdoor recess we came in and ate lunch before grabbing a hockey stick and jumping on the bus to go to JMH for PE. When we came back to Ian Baillie we had some guests from NBCC (Stephanie and Biancca) talk to us about the thumb-body program! We sang songs, made stars, and talked about some cool words like "unique" and "self-esteem". Do you know what those words mean? They will be back on Tuesday to do more cool stuff with us! We finished the day off with our book of gratitude and I signed the agendas. Miss Davidson will be filling in for me tomorrow, but I will be in the building. How do you treat guests in your home? How do we treat guests in our classroom? I cant believe tomorrow is the last day of the week already! Get lots of rest an I will see you tomorrow.

Wizard by BenWelcome back everyone! We had a nice long break. We started off the day with my favorite minute of the week, Floride! Do you know why its my favorite minute? After floride we did our morning warm up! A spelling word, a doodle, and a quick show not tell. Do you remember what character we used for our doodle? Then we went to language arts with Miss Gallant until recess! After recess we had math! We talked about a cool video by google, and read some multiplication stories. We worked on perimeter! Do you remember what perimeter is? There is a formula for perimeter, do you know what that is? (Perimeter is equal to ???) It was a beautiful day and we all go outside for lunch! When we came back in it was hot lunch from Eds Sub! Thank you to all the volunteers who help make that wonderful program work and run smoothly! After lunch we went to PE at JMH. What did you do today? When we came back we talked about presentations for computer class using smart notebook. Did you get yours done? Remember you will need to be able to tell a story! We finished up in computer and wrote in our book of gratitude. We got our agenda's signed and ready for home. A great first day back! Get lots of rest and I will see you tomorrow!

OCTO by JMH Art ClassIt was a very full day today. We started out by using an extra 10 minutes to clean and organize our new... I mean old.. desks. Then we did our morning routine. We wrote a small story about a sore tooth, doodled a cranky baby, and spelled a word they use in weather sometimes. Do you remember the word? Then we did some math. We talked about perimeter! Perimeter is the distance around an object and can be found by adding up all the sides. It was a nice day today so we got to get outside! After lunch we went to JMH, but we skipped gym! We met Mr. Fallon's art class and looked at some of the characters that they made. Which character was your favorite? When we came back Miss Gallants class did the Thumb-bodies program and we did science. We looked at towers. What are some things all towers seem to have in common? Did you remember that when you built your tower? Get lots of sleep and I will see you tomorrow!

We started off the day with our opening morning routine. We were all excited about the CUTE awards from last week! Great job everyone! We looked at some of the pictures on the district web site. We also did our world news on an upcoming musical that both JMH and Bathurst high will be performing. Do remember the name of it? Think of our doodle today! After our warm up we went to LA with Miss Gallant. Check out her teacher page to see what we did today. We had to cut LA a little short so we could jump on the bus and go to a TNB play at Dr. Losier Middle school. What was it about? I hope they return my teddy bear! After the play we walked down the hill. It was VERY cold! I thought this was supposed to be spring! It was so cold that we stayed indoors for lunch today. After lunch we cleaned up and went to JMH for floor hockey! When we got back from floor hockey we had Social Studies with Miss Gallant. Are volunteers important? Who do you know that volunteers? After Social Studies we pretended to be ninja's and did something very exciting! I hope Mrs. Hache doesnt get mad at us! I told everyone to sign their own agenda with a happpy face, and we went home for the day! Get lots of sleep tonight, and I will see you for a busy day tomorrow!
