Recently, we enjoyed a visit from one of our class parents and a couple of the family's pets, Blacky and White-o. All of the children were thrilled to have a chance to meet, touch, and share treats with these charming, clever creatures!
The Grade Two Smarties have caught Olympic Fever, and are learning about Olympic Sports, Sportsmanship, and participating countries. In particular, we are focused on Japan and Japanese culture, since we have an in house 'expert' handy :-). The children have sampled some Japanese food... and, so far, plain white rice is a hit!
Snow days have really thrown a wrench into the flow of our days, and I am hoping for a reprieve in the next week of Winter Carnival before March Break. Day 100 Celebrations were a hit, and we are still enjoying those presentations... Friday February 21st will be Day 102!
Stay tuned for more photos and updates. I will try to update once a week, and we'll see how that goes. Please click on the 'contact' page in order to offer suggestions, or make requests about what you'd like to see here!
