We'd like to share some of the halloween and fall activities we've been doing. We made some wonderful fall similes. We also created some pumpkins which Mrs. Morrison used to see if we could listen to and follow directions. Today we made halloween sticker art. We chose a halloween sticker with our eyes closed and then had to create a background for.

Internet Safety
Today we spent some time learning about Internet Safety. Check out this great link to Online Safety with Professor Garfield You can watch the short video, then decide what is SURF SMART or YAPPY (information you should NOT give out on the internet) and finally apply what you've learned.

Happy Thanksgiving
On Friday, we took part in our schools annual Primary Sharing Feast. All of the students in kindergarten through grade 3 gathered in the gym shortly before lunch. Each class shared a poem or song and then we all did the "Turkey Pokey." Finally we sang Raffi's "Thanks A Lot" before eating our lunch together in the gym. Here is a short video.
Our poem was "Turkey Dinner"
Turkey dinner, turkey dinner,
Gather round, gather round.
Who will get the drumstick?
Yummy, yummy drumstick.
All sit down, all sit down.
Cornbread muffins, chestnut stuffing.
Pudding pie one foot high.
All of us were thinner,
Until we came to dinner.
Me oh my! Me oh my!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

AB Patterns
In math we've been working on patterning. We've made patterns with snap cubes and pattern blocks, on paper, and with sounds and actions. I must say we are all very good at creating patterns and explaining them. Today we focused on creating only AB patterns. Here is some of our work.
Using Snap Cubes
On Paper
Using Pattern Blocks
These two created an AB pattern that they could fit inside.
