Today was the first day everyone was together in our class. The students worked well with each other and new friends were made. Tomorrow we will be having our first school assembly in the gym. We learned some classroom rules today. Ask your child if they can tell you what some of them are. Hopefully they can remember a few :) We are looking for a Joe Fresh blue and white plaid shirt that went missing. If you noticed it in your child's book bag could you please send it back to school. Thanks!

Tuesday was such a gorgeous day that we decided to do our yoga outside! We learned some incredible "Animal Poses" and some basic yoga positions. (We are doing our downward facing dog in the photo!)
Yoga has been found to have amazing effects on children. It enhances concentration, flexibility and balance while fostering confidence, relaxation and overall well being. :)

Happy June!!!!
Our class is celebrating the arrival of June with a camp themed week! We have so many fantastic activities planned! Please feel free to send any pictures of your child camping (or just out in nature) to share with the rest of the class!
As mentioned previously, last week was the final week of homework (yay!) but reading logs and Poetry books will continue to be sent home for the month of June. Please be reminded to send the Poetry books back to school as we use them on a daily basis!
Thursday, June 7th is our field to Metepenagiag!!! Just a reminder to parents that they are more than welcome to join us, as long as you provide your own entrance fee and travel accommodations. Children are required to bring snacks and a lunch with them. (We will not have access to a microwave, so pack accordingly!)
We will be posting pictures and videos of our camp week activities, so make sure to check our class site regularly
Have a marvelous week!!!

In You and Your World the boys and girls are learning about Unit 4 – Place and Community. Over the last 2 weeks we have been talking about identifying common features and landmarks in their community, in particular, the Miramichi River and the Centennial Bridge. We talked about the construction to help maintain the bridge in the upcoming weeks and the students were asked to construct a new model of the Centennial Bridge. Check out their videos to see the super job they did constructing their bridges. Terrific Work Boys and Girls!
