Fred Penner Concert

The highlight of our week was attending the Fred Penner Concert on Thursday morning. The students were singing, dancing, and laughing the whole time! We were very lucky because 4 students from our class, Mahika, Carys, Joshua and William joined Fred Penner on stage for one of his songs!

More Snail Mail!
The students were thrilled to receive two more letters this week from the Great Canadian Mail Race. Hifsa received a letter of reply from a student in Toronto, Ontario and Jacob received a letter from a student in Edmonton, Alberta!

A Special Treat 
A few weeks ago, our class had written a fabulous story about a terrifying dream using a technique called "Wrap Around Endings". The story was about an alien who turned out to be more funny than he was scary, as this alien loved root-beer floats! Our class also enjoyed making some floats of their very own at the end of the week as a special treat. I wish you could have seen the students reactions when they entered the room from recess and seen the ice-cream waiting for them on their desks! It was priceless! Hmmm. I wonder what they are going to write about next...

Author's Chair
Our students love to write interesting stories while collaborating with a partner! After we enjoyed our floats, we listened to Ethan and Tyler share a piece of writing they have been working on together. I'm so proud of the amazing readers and writers we have in our classroom!
