Hi parents,
We had a good day today, once again largely centred around art.
Our Giving Tree artwork is coming along really nicely - as I mentioned in yesterday's post, this artwork is being created as part of an Art Cards by Kids fundraiser, and each child's artwork will be used to create beautiful multi-purpose cards that families can purchase to raise money for our school. We are also learning about the Metis peoples of Canada throughout the process.
Students also did some awesome work with Haiku writing today. Mrs. Fernandez led the class through a discussion about syllables and descriptive words, and then challenged the students to write down words that described a flower. The students went above and beyond our expectations, and decided to write complete poems about the flower instead - many of these poems even followed the Haiku format perfectly, despite having only learned about it very briefly!
Tomorrow is our spelling quiz!
Have a nice night
Zac
