  A very brave bunch today getting our needles, I was impressed.  We watched the torch travel another day today and we continue to get excited.  We watched our new weekly math problem, its a head scratcher!  We have our Remembrance day assembly tomorrow after recess.  In our chapter book today Jack and Annie went for a ride in a fishing boat with Basho to the market.  Why didn't they take the boat all the way to Basho's home?  In math we practiced writing two different math sentence to describe one picture using addition and subtraction.  Have a great night and see you tomorrow!

Mr. Lange was in Ottawa last week for a conference and met up with another Miramichi'er with a math problem for our class.  Many thanks to our local MP for being such a good sport (as always)!  Congratulations to Zach Perron who won the draw for last week.  Remember this is beyond our normal math cirriculum, you can guide but don't give your child the answer.  All answers must be in by Friday morning to be placed in the draw!  Good luck to all!

  Wow was this class ever good at using the SENTEO's in math today.   The third time is a charm I guess.  We will definitely try to incorporate them every day if possible.  Congratulations to Zachary Perron who won the draw for the weekly math prize!  I'll try to post next weeks video before the weekend ends.  We started tracking the Olympic torch today and we are starting to realize how big a deal this is going to be!  In our book today Jack and Annie were almost attacked by three samurai warriors!  Do you know how they got away?  Have a great long weekend everyone and I will see you on Monday!

Good Morning,      Today is Thursday.   We are all getting super excited about the Olympic torch!  Mrs. Gorges is carrying the torch, and so is Logan's uncle Jason, and Kelly's friends mom.   Our choir is going to sing!  Rhyan is going to her cousins for the weekend.  Construction on the fort continues and now Colby is building one too!  Reese's mom is going to Ottawa and Shannon's parents are both in Montreal.  Enjoy the long weekend!Mr. McCallum's class

 We finished up some of the details on our soldiers today with some extra art time.  We used the SENTEO's in math again.  We are getting better with them.  We just need to learn to not shout out the answers!  What does your child like most about the SENTEO's?  Reese's sister was a guest in our room today.  She was very nice and helped us with our work and read us a story.  We used the scooters in gym today and played Ballet Tag with them.   In our book Dragon of the Red Dawn we tried to use the wand but couldn't because of the 3 rules of the wand.  Jack and Annie will have to find passports another way.  Since we worked so hard today we finished off the day today with a game of quiet ball.  Spelling test tomorrow and parent teacher interviews start as well.

  Reports went home today!  We had an interesting day today.  We were very busy cutting and coloring in Art making soldiers for Remembrance Day.  We have some interesting looking soldiers!  Instead of carrying a gun one soldier is carrying a kitty cat, and another is carrying a bear.  That should confuse the enemy.  We also gave the SENTEO's a try in math class today (ask your child about them).  The entire class liked them so we will try them again tomorrow!  We also started a new chapter book today called "Dawn of the Red Dragon".  We found out the magic wand has 3 rules... do you know them?

Can you believe Mrs. Gorges got selected to carry the torch!  WOW!  (Hint) Too bad she can only get flags for the students and NOT for the teachers!  Last week Colby won a set of books from Mrs. McCarthy and Mrs. Hache.  We will have another draw this week for those who submit the right answer.  Good luck everyone!
