Spring has Sprung!

Spring is here, the sun is shining and the flowers are starting to bloom! We had to jump on this exciting opportunity to go check out the new Daffodales! 

With Spring is the holiday of new life: Easter. Today we read a couple of great Easter books and dyed (and decorated) our own hard boiled eggs! For the colouring process we just used hot water, vinegar, and food colouring to get our eggs the colour we hoped for! 

We will be talking about Spring and Easter all week so be sure to check back for more pictures of our classroom activities!

Thank-you Fin!

Last week we had a special deliver from Fin-- the Vancouver Canucks mascot. Because we have been working hard on the Fin's Friends program this year, the coordinators reached out and decided to give each of the students in our school a Canucks calendar! 

Thank-you Fin's Friends! 

Have a Fin-tastic evening!

Celebrating Dr. Seuss!

Last week was Dr. Seuss' Birthday! In honour of the famous Author, we celebrated his Birthday by reading a variety of his books throughout the week. 

After reading The Cat in the Hat, we participated in a self-directed drawing of the famous character. Here are a couple samples of our work: 

Because Dr. Seuss demonstrates himself as a "silly" man through the characters of his books, we decided to finish our week by all wearing silly socks! 

Here are a few photos of us showing our silly side: 

We hope you have a Silly Spring Break!

Another Successful Day of Skating!

Today was our third (and last) day of skating. It was a morning full of determination, motivation, pride, and success! We have all grown so much since the first skating day-- each and every single child should be so proud of themselves! 

Thanks again to all of the wonderful parents for helping us walk to and from the school and rink, the support on the ice, and most of all, all your help tying skates!! 

Have a great day! 

Love,

Division 16 

Fun with our Big Buddies!

We love spending good quality time with our Big Buddies! They always demonstrate good leadership and never forget how to be good friends and role models! 

Thanks for the good times Big Buddies! We hope you had a great weekend! 

Love,
