Class 5 - Decorating with Stamps

Today Class 5 did some exciting Mother Day stamping! We started by painting, 'Mommy' in the centre of our papers and then got busy with vibrant colours. We then dipped our stamps into paint and
began decorating around our papers with love! Our stamping designs were hearts, flowers and smiley faces just for mom! We can't wait to share our love with you!

Class 4 - Independent Reading

Class 4 love to be social, and have fun with their friends, but it's also important for us to practise time to ourselves.  Class 4 had quiet reading time in our Book Nook.  All of the children were asked to pick a book off our shelf and then take time to interpret their take on the stories.  This was an open ended learning experience, as they asked questions and made up their own stories looking at the pictures.

Elect: 1.5, 2.4, 3.3, 3.8, 3.11



Class 5 - Salsa Surprise

Class 5 had a special guest that had an impromptu dance class this morning.  Ms. Tary took Class 5 on a dancing adventure.  We practised some new dance moves and then made our very own conga line!  Class 5 loves when Ms. Tary comes to school with her dancing shoes on, so much fun!  Great listening ears, friends!
