Peace is....


Today in preparation for Remembrance Day we read The Peace Book by Todd Parr.   It is a great book that delivers positive and hopeful messages of peace for kids. 


We learned that peace can mean different things to different people.  The students brainstormed what peace means to them.  Then we recorded our ideas in the format of a Peace poem.  You may see some of our ideas on display at the Celebration of Learning on November 21st as well as our poppy art.

Reminder that there is no school on Monday as it is Remembrance Day!!

Such a fun last day for me with the class! We had a fun flashlight party with our new little books, David's Father by Robert Munsch . And most fun of all, the gerbils got to explore their amusement park we built them. Some videos and photos are below! I hope the students had as much fun as I did today. Wishing everyone a wonderful break and  see you in the new year! Love, Ms. McCullough

Story Writing

Today we finished our first story! We began with brainstorming characters and settings and descriptive words for both. We came up with ideas for either a lost story or a stuck story.

Then we came up with interesting ways to end our story such as the character's feelings, a lesson learned or a reflection. We are very proud of our hard work and look forward to sharing our stories at conferences with you in March!
