Snowshoeing and Valentine's fun

What a busy week we had! We finally had enough snow to try out the school's snowshoes so we set out on Thursday to explore the schoolyard. We quickly learnt that snowshoeing was hard work but a lot of fun! Friday was our Valentine's party and we enjoyed playing games, having snacks, and dancing the day away. Next week is a short week due to Family Day on Monday and I hope everyone enjoys a relaxing day with their family.

Ready for Valentine's Day!

Today we created our Valentine's Day bags. After showing the students some ideas and teaching them how to measure their paper so it fit the front of the bag, the students got right to work. I was amazing by how creative they were in coming up with ideas and designs for their bags. I feel that each has their own personality. This week we also welcomed Miss O'Krafka to our class. She is a student teacher who will be working with us for 9 weeks. I am excited for the pattern unit and the fairy tale unit she is planning for us.
