Gung Hay Fat Choy!

Today, the grade 1's in room 14 & 16 celebrated Chinese New Year!  We went on a parade dressed in red, carrying lanterns and dragons - all symbols of good luck.  We even brought a broom to sweep the bad luck out from last year!  Now, each classroom can welcome in good luck.  A few students even played musical instruments.  We had a lot of fun!  Gung Hay Fat Choy!

Dance-a-thon

 Here we are getting ready to perform our dance!

 We were treated to Zumba lessons!  It was a lot of fun!

Room 16 is taking a break after a long afternoon of dancing!

Well done Stevenson!  We raised over $9 000 for Heart and Stroke!

The Three Billy Goats Gruff

Today we had a group of students perform a reader's theatre play, "The Three Billy Goats Gruff."  They did a fabulous job!  All of the performers worked hard on using fluency and expression.  After the play, we were sure to shower them in compliments, as well as, give them a few "helpful hints" so that they can set goals for their next performance.  Well done!

Dance-a-thon here we come!

The kindergarten's and grade 1 students have been working hard all week on their dance for the dance-a-thon.  On Thursday and Friday this week, we met as a large group, and put the "puzzle pieces" of our dance together.  We are working hard because we want to knock your socks off!
