Speak tenderly to them. Let there be kindness in your face, in your eyes, in your smile, in the warmth of your greeting. Always have a cheerful smile. Don’t give only your care, but give your heart as well –Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta

Week 34!

This week we continued to work on building our reading stamina.  We are now independently silent reading for just over 8 minutes and we only started practicing on May 6th!
 In Language Arts this week we played with what we know about sounds to create new verses based on familiar songs.  



The students have been having lots of fun using Pig Latin to communicate.  We learned a song about how to use Pig Latin and then created our own verses for the song. 
In Social we finished our Inuit children research and art projects then displayed them in the hallway for others to enjoy.

In Religion we finished our Jesus Walks on Water bible story and craft from Matthew 14.

In Math we finished our measurement assessments.  
Stephie's Bike Tour was this weekend and it was a great success again!  My boys and I did the 12km ride while my husband did the 85km ride.  It was hard work but it was wonderful to be involved in such a worthy cause and a great community event.  Looking forward to 2015!
