Enjoying the Beautiful Weather

We decided to take a walk to the park today to enjoy the sunshine and beautiful weather. Actually, Ms. Brown was needing some sunshine because she is stuck indoors most days. Regardless, it was a great 30 minutes at the park taking a break from school.

What did you do today?

Party Time

I have never seen a group of kids so excited to earn a party as they were today. They have earned 10 check marks and were so proud of themselves. I know that I said I wasn't going to use rewards this year but this group of kids have had a really challenging year and I felt they needed to see and work towards a goal. 

So tomorrow they will wear their pj's to school, bring blankets and their DS's and PSP's to school. They wanted to have ice cream floats, so we are going all out.

I'm looking forward to tomorrow because of PJ Day and the Royal Wedding is on in the morning. I'm going to be dead dog tired but it's going to be worth it. 

Look for pictures.

Happy Easter

I know I'm a week late with posting these pictures but as some people say, "Better late than never!" We had a great day. We made Easter basket the day before and the kids got to hunt for eggs first thing in the morning. I then thought it would be a lot of fun for them to pull the eggs out of their baskets using chopsticks. Some didn't know how to use the chopsticks but quickly came up with a strategy to solve their problem. They're getting to be great problem solvers. 

Happy Valentine's Day!!!

Dear Students,

I am sorry to miss Valentine's Day. My back has not gotten any better since I went home on Friday. Your Penguin Valentine Buckets turned out so well. I LOVE THEM!!! I'm very proud of your hard work.  Have a great time skating tomorrow afternoon. I will be thinking about you all having a lot of fun. 

Have a wonderful day. 

Ms. Brown

Carter & Flat Stanley

Carter showed Stanley a great fun filled snow weekend. Carter took Stanley to visit his Grandma. Stanley got to go snowmobiling with Carter and his family. He even got his own skidoo. It was Carter's remote control skidoo. Carter took Stanley on his very own snowmobile. His family goes snowmobiling all the time. His mom often stays home and makes delicious things for supper.
Stanley also got his picture taken with Marley, she kept looking at him as if he would be a taste treat for dinner. Hmmm!!! Chopper, Carter's dog,  liked having his picture taken. He enjoyed looking at the camera.
Carter says his favourite part about Stanley's visit was taking him snowmobiling.
