Our Week - April 23 - 26

Hi Families,

We hope you enjoyed your long weekend together. Please check your child's folder for information on our upcoming Movie Night on May 2nd. The kids are very excited!

Here are some stories,

Earth Day Garbage Pick Up
On Tuesday we celebrated Earth Day. Mrs. Darlow took us outside on our nature walk to do an Earth Day scavenger hunt! We also worked together to pick up garbage and help the Earth! We wore gloves and used tongs and had to sort the litter we found into garbage and recycling! We also worked on a school mural of our butterfly garden. We found different flowers and put them on the mural.
         

Mystery Bags
Ms. Tamaki made us mystery bags to go at our measurement centre. They are all closed and have different things inside. We had to measure them using our hands and a scale to find out which one was the heaviest and which was the lightest.
 

Rhyming Pop
We have been playing Rhyming Pop this week! We have to look at the picture on our bubble and find a partner who has a match! We are becoming rhyming experts!


Ms. Tamaki
On Wednesday, it was Ms. Tamaki's last day. We have loved having her work and learn with us and we will miss her a lot! She gave us each a tub of play-doh and we gave her a book that we made!

Piggie Rhymes
We read The Wonderful Pigs of Jillian Jiggs and made our own pigs. We gave our pigs a name and then made a silly rhyme to match. 



Puppet Show Movie Theatre 
Since next week it is Movie Night at Black Walnut we decided to turn our Puppet Show into a puppet show movie theatre. We have made tickets, a popcorn machine, and a juice machine. 


Jump Rope for Heart
On Thursday, we went outside to skip for Jump Rope for Heart. We did really well and were so excited when we learned to skip for the first time. We got to dance, play with chalk, and use hula hoops too! Black Walnut raised over $5300.00 for the Heart and Stroke Foundation! Way to Go Wolverines!


Reading Rhymes
A Bluejay brought in a story to read to the class. She chose it from her house because it was full of rhymes! She sat in our teacher chair and read to us!


Worm Saving
On Friday, it was raining again. We went outside to look for worms that had come out of the ground. We found the biggest worms ever! One was as long as Ms. Boag's rain boot! We brought them inside and gave them some dirt to sleep in. We gave them some cucumber and some banana peel too in case they get hungry! 


We took some out of our dirt and put them onto brown paper so we could measure them. One was 8 cubes long, one was 10 cubes long, and one was 12 cubes! It was a great day!
