Peace and Poppies

Today we started talking about peace and Remembrance Day.  We painted poppies, which will be part of the school's Remembrance Day ceremony on Thursday.

Happy Halloween!!

Terrible Pictures of a Fantastic Afternoon

Today the kids had "Halloween Gym" during their last two periods. They joined up with some Grade 5 helpers to try out some spooky centres in the gym.  My camera's flash definitely ruined the ambiance (it was so dark and creepy!) but the kids were really having a blast.  The last two photos are from the change rooms, which were completely pitch black except for flashlights and glow sticks.  Thank you to our new Phys. Ed. teacher, Mme Tease, for setting up this neat experience.  I'd also like to take this opportunity to introduce her to you.  She will be here for the rest of the year while Mme Beaudin is on maternity leave.  Bienvenue!

 

 

Getting Ready for Halloween

Our classroom is spookified, and we are counting down the days until our Halloween party and parade.  Here is one of the songs we'll be singing until then.

C'est l'Halloween - Matt Maxwell

Here we are working on our self-portraits.  They look so much like us!

Rockin' in the Gym

We got to watch a special presenter in the gym yesterday.  His name is Roland Baribeau and he is a well-known French musician in Winnipeg.  We danced and sang along to his rock songs for an hour.  What a treat!
