Gymnastics
*I can show behaviors that support participation, safety, and participant enjoyment.

This week our Learning Leader Mrs. Sampson joined Grade 2 to teach us more about financial literacy. We learned:  

Wellness (Positive Affirmations)
This week read the book, "I Think, I Am!" We learned about affirmations and speaking kindly to ourselves. Students wrote stories about character rabbits and positive affirmations would change perspectives. 

Check out Sully's example below:  

Little Bee Bunny
Little Bee Bunny went to play with his friends. But when they played tag Little Bee was it and when he tried to get them they jumped away really fast. Little Bee was not fast and then he tried again but they jumped way faster than him. So he went away so sad. Then Little Bee's Mom went up to him and said, "What's wrong Little Bee?"  Little Bee said, "I can't jump that high and tag my friends." "That's okay all you gotta do is say to yourself "I can do this!" So Little Bee tried that and it worked. He was a good jumper after all. The end. 

Postcards for Paddington
Students in Grade 3 did a phenomenal job presenting to our school about the needs of children. We learned more about "Postcards for Paddington" and how we can help other children around the world and raise money for UNICEF. Thank you to our fabulous friends in Grade 3 who organized this donation initiative.

"We do postcards for Paddington so kids in other communities can have good lives." -Ava
"We did this to make sure more kids can get what they actually need." -Shaw
"We are hoping to donate toonies to help other kids have better rights." -Rylee

Social Studies (Meteghan)
This week we began to explore the fabulous Maritimes. Have your child share 3 facts they learned. 

Have a wonderful weekend!
