Today was "Dress like your favourite storybook character" day! We had some fabulous outfits... We also participated in school-wide "Drop Everything And Read" event in the afternoon. We enjoyed finding different corners around the room to get cozy with a book. But 20 minutes is a LONG time to try to stay silent!! We have been working on sequence writing and learning how to use the French equivalents of "first", "then", "next", "last". Madame had us go to the garden to make mud pies and then record our ingredients and our process. The writing piece of this activity was very difficult for some of us, not only because of all of the French writing involved, but also because it was complicated to try to break down the steps of our pie-making in our minds. But we persevered through the task! We will continue to practice this form of writing in the coming weeks with other fun activities. We have also been continuing to learn about eggs this week as we anxiously await our chicks' hatch date next Tuesday! Madame had us do all kinds of science/math activities with hard-boiled and soft-boiled eggs, and then we also began an experiment with an egg in vinegar to see what will we become of the egg after we let it soak in the vinegar all weekend. And it was our final ice skating week! We really enjoyed this series of practice sessions and we had some amazing mini coaches who even helped Madame learn to skate backwards and stop without using a wall. (Ok, well... she learned the theory of how to do it, but definitely has not mastered either skill). Extra photos...
