Holiday Fun!

Before the break the class had some fun competing to make the best toilet paper snowman and decorating our door.  We won first place in the primary division for our Tree Farm door!  There were many other amazing doors!

Decoration

We hope you enjoyed the holiday decoration the students brought home.  They worked very hard to learn to sew in order to make them and they did an amazing job!  We also discussed how the early settlers of Canada created homemade gifts for Christmas as supplies and stores were limited. 

Prodigy Math Game

Students in our class have really been enjoying the math game Prodigy.  It is directly linked to the Ontario Math Curriculum.  If your child wants to access it from home, they can login with their MCS Google account.  The Google login follows the format below:

Password: 3 numbers repeated twice (they know this password)

Friday, Dec. 20

Tomorrow we will be having a day filled with fun activities.  We will be watching a movie and playing games.  Students are welcome to bring their own board games and devices if they wish.  I will be providing snacks.  

Science

 We have been busy in science over the past couple of months!  Students have been creating bridges, structures and simple machines with a variety of materials.  We continue to go outside each week and are now learning about the risks of exposure if we don't dress for the weather!

 

Book Orders

Scholastic book orders are due tomorrow.
