January 6, 2015

Hello families and friends,

Happy new year!  We had a busy first day back today.  We started our day with music.  In music we warmed up and then did some singing.  Then we played follow the leader jumping over and in hula hoops in gym.  We also passed the hula hoop while holding hands in a group.  Ask your child about this.  Then we had Roots of Empathy.  We talked about teeth because Baby Loyal is getting his teeth.  We also read the story Suki's Kimono.  Then we did some writing about our holiday.

This afternoon we did some art with Scott and Jackie from the Leighton Art Centre.  We did some landscape art with watercolour paint.  We also tried blind contour drawing.  Ask your child about these.

Wednesday, January 28th is Fun Lunch.

Scholastic Book Orders are due back to Mr. Soulliere this Friday, January 9th.

Report Cards go home next Friday, January 16th.

Post in the comments below one of the art terms we learned today and what it means.

Have a great afternoon,
Room 74 and Mr. Soulliere
