Good afternoon!

Today in Peace Pod we enjoyed some time with Mrs. Kinsman reading and reflecting on our novel 'The Wishtree'.  We also had Phys Ed with Mr. Der and played an exciting game of 4 corner soccer.

We had the opportunity to reflect and connect on our community drawings from yesterday through the reading of two stories.  'Maybe Something Beautiful' is the story of how a young girl brings colour to her grey neighborhood through sharing art.  We discussed how art in our community and our lives makes it more joyful for everyone.  Ask your child what a mural is.  We also read "The Crayon Box that Talked" which is the story of crayons coming together to make a beautiful picture.  Colour is a powerful tool.

This afternoon we also had a chance to finish up our Poppy Art and practice the different Math games that we have learned so far.  We also read 'The Thankful Book' by Todd Parr and thought about all of the wonderful things that we are thankful for as we head into the weekend.

Reminders:
NO SCHOOL Friday, Oct 11 or Monday, Oct 14!

Enjoy your weekend!!
