So what's been happening in Grade 1?

It's been a while since I updated the blog due to conferences and holidays. It was great to have the chance to talk to you all in the conferences. The children are now working on the goals they set for themselves.
We were so happy to have Alexa Bruschke join our class this week. The other children have been particularly good about making her feel welcome. 


PUMPKIN PATCH We visited the Pumpkin Patch today for photos and a spooky story. The children have brought home a goody bag too. There are more photos here

WORD GAMES - thanks to all the parents who come in for an hour today to help with word games. The children learned lots of new spelling games in that time. There are photos of it here


Yesterday we celebrated Amber and Zara's birthdays.
Nick took the turtles home for the long weekend. He let them swim in the bath for a couple of days!
Chilean Miners - On Wednesday last week I had the children watch as the 3rd Chilean miner was brought up from underground. They were as spellbound by it as I was. Hannah drew and wrote about it in the weekend and I thought it was so sweet I should share it with you:

The wife is saying "He's safe." The miner says, "I'm OK."
