Happy St. Patrick's Day!
Today was full of unexpected behaviours - in the best way!
In spite of it being Fun Lunch, St. Patrick's Day, and the second last day of school, the students were calm, respectful, hardworking, and exceptionally kind throughout the entire day. Many students did their best work of the whole year - if conferences had been this week instead, I would be so excited to send it home.
In the morning, we did more math work around the similarities and differences between math equations.
Then, the students got to choose between four St. Patrick's themed writing prompts:
-Write a Limerick (from scratch!)
-If I had a Lucky Pencil (this is an Arthur reference)
-How to Catch a Leprechaun
-At the end of the rainbow, I found...
Students who finished early worked on word searches and thematically appropriate math problems. There was even a "Finish the Limerick" section.
Fun lunch lived up to its name, without getting too wild.
We worked on Social Studies through learning about Meteghan, and listened to our Guest Reader.
We ended the day with Gym and Music.
Since today was such a good day, and since tomorrow is our last day of school before spring break, we are going to have a Pajama / Stuffy Day! Students are encouraged to wear pajamas and bring one reasonably-sized stuffed animal to school. We will still be doing plenty of schoolwork, including the spelling quiz, but hopefully the stuffed animals will provide some moral support.
Have a nice night,
Zac
