Tuesday, December 6

 Hi parents,

We had a great day today!

In the morning, we watched this video about Ukrainian dance and puppets. Ukraine is one of the four countries we're learning about for Grade 3 Social Studies. While we may touch on current events in Ukraine, our main focus will be the culture, traditions, food, celebrations, and geography. Mr. Ripka has even brought in some traditional Ukrainian dance clothing and will be teaching the students a few moves soon :)

Students who did not get to test their board games out yesterday got to test them today. It was really interesting to talk with groups and hear their self reflections about things that worked and didn't work. They seem really eager to make revisions, rather than feeling embarrassed about missing things or upset that their games may not have been perfect the first time they tried them.

In the afternoon, we had Music, Gym, and Mindfulness. The class also wrote sentences using -ly adverbs, and even acted out some of them.

Have a nice day,

Zac
