More Buddy Work
Today, we spent 30 minutes working with our buddies on our newscast. Enjoy the pictures! Next week, we will have some completed projects to share.
Team Canada
Congratulations to Team Canada - created by Kennedy, Trevyn, Thomas and
The students worked together to learn more about Canada by conducting their own research using myOn, Google Earth and a book resource. First, they created a plan for their presentation by drafting up each slide.. then they transferred their ideas to Powerpoint. Not bad for their first team project! I can't wait to see what they are doing by the end of May.

Pencils and Glue
We are experiencing a pencil and glue shortage in our class. If possible, please send in. Many thanks!
Star Student
A star student schedule was sent home today. Your child will be making an iMovie to share with the class on his or her special day. At your convenience, could you share 5-6 photos by emailing them to me? It would be best if you could send them at least 1 week before your child’s star student day. They will need a week to work on their presentation. If you cannot email, please send them in and I will scan them. I will send you a copy of the final iMovie.
Valentine’s Day!
Please send in an empty cereal box so that we may decorate. We need a big box for our class valentines! Also, if you are able to send in a topping for our ice cream sundae treat. Please let me know!
Digital Learning Day!
Last week, we celebrated Digital Learning Day with our 5th and 2nd grade buddies.
