 Hi parents,

We had a pretty fun end to our week today. It was in fact the 100th day of school, so we met with our buddies and the students worked in groups on art projects. The goal was to create an ocean scene that featured exactly 100 marine creatures. The students had a lot of fun with this activity and got lots of practice counting to 100 and building group-work and organization skills.

We did another 100's themed activity, in which the class worked together to survey a total of 100 people on four simple questions. We compiled the data and found that, out of 100 students at LBS, the most-liked colour is 'green', the favourite pet is 'dog', and the favourite season is summer.

In the afternoon we had Music and finished watching Gnomeo and Juliet. We attempted to start working on Little Prince stop-motion animations, but I think it's been too long since the students worked with Stop Motion for them to get right back into it. So we'll have to do some simpler projects first and hope that we can find time to record Little Prince movies in the near future!

Tonight is the Family Dance! Please make sure you buy tickets beforehand if you want the best deal. I hope to see you there!

Please also keep in mind that we do not have school until next Tuesday due to Teachers Convention and Family Day.

Have a nice long weekend!

Zac
