Fantastical Monsters!

Check these out! 3A students are overflowing with imagination and creativity!

Visualizing!

Today, I read the poem "My Neighbour's Dog is Purple" to the students. It is a humourous poem rich with descriptive language. After reading the first two stanzas, the students drew their mental image of the dog I had described. After, I read the last stanza out loud. With this added information, the kids then drew their new image of the strange, fierce, purple painted dog!

Spoooooooooky Night!

Then3A artists are getting into the spirit of October!

Terry Fox Fundraising!

The 3A class has been awesome helpers during our Terry Fox Fundraising Campaign. They are collecting and counting money, and cheering on the wacky teachers in the if/then challenges (i.e. If we raise $800, Ms. Giles will kiss a goat!). Look at the picture below and how we have already surpassed our $800 goal! I was volunteered to kiss the goat as well today if we reach $1000! As you can see from the photo, we are inching our way to $1000!

Five Dancing Chickens!

The Kindergarten team entertained us in a rousing chicken dance! Everyone joined in for a second dance!

The Sugar Plum Fairy!

Mr. Pope had the school in stitches today. As a reward for having raised $600  for the Terry Fox Foundation, he donned a tutu and pirouetted around the gym for his adoring fans!

Dancing into Grade 3!

Inspired by the book "Giraffes Can't Dance" by Giles Andreae, the students created their own dancing giraffes, using tempera paints and markers!
