Fun in October...


In October we had TIA- The Integrated Arts. Mme Becky came and taught us all about dance and movement. She also taught us about magnets and forces that attract and repel. It was a lot of fun to make up the dance and playing shoe game!






Can you guess what emotion we are trying to convey?? Look below, how about us?..










We finished out Swimming lessons on Monday. We learned things like how to do the back crawl, side glide, to help someone when they are in trouble, and the elementary backstroke! We also relaxed in the hot tub!


We met our Roots of Empathy baby. Her name is Hana. She is really cute and we made predictions and on our next visit we will see if she can do them. Right now, she likes to lay down, when she is with her mom, and she doesn't like the bottle just yet!








We worked on our Forces booklet and practiced PUSH and PULL!




An artist hard at work on his Haunted House! You should see how spooky they turned out!


We learned about Venn Diagrams, and also that the majority of us and our families like SWEET stuff! 


We also set some reading goals this month and are working towards them!


This year we decided to melt crayons on our pumpkin to decorate it! We used a heat gun, and watch the wax melt!



 We also shared our Haunted House stories and tried to sell the spookiest house on the street!







On Halloween we has some Math fun with smarties and worked together as a team to come up with the answers. Then we ate them of course! 




There was some really good costumes this year! We also had fun treats and candy apple bar at the party!













Happy Halloween from Salle 23!



We hope everyone had a great October. Here is the questions:
Students: What are you most looking forward to in November??
and...
Parents: What is your favourite Halloween memory and why? It can be from when you were a child or with your own child.

Fall Fun!...


We started off the Fall season with some fun finger paint and used tin foil to create our trees! It was fun to use our fingers and they turned out awesome! ( You can see them on our bulletin board outside our classroom)






We took advantage of the nice weather and went outside with our Reading Buddies, who are in grade one!



In Math, we have been learning new games about place value and doing our different stations. One game we learned was called STOMP IT- we love to stomp out the numbers and to break the time record!









We also learned about all the different ways we can represent a number and we worked in groups to show it!







We ran as a school in support of Terry Fox. It felt great to raise money to support cancer and finding a cure.








These three were recognized at our assembly for their hard work speaking French in class!






And today we had a SURPRISE!...We found out Mme Janes is having a baby girl! We celebrated with pink cupcakes and pink bubble gum!







Her big sister is excited to have a little sister! :)

That's all for now! :)
