Happy Valentines' Week! ...and welcome to February - the shortest month of the year, with the most special days to recognize! But we're not complaining. We had a ton of fun (and a ton of sugar!) on Valentine's Day. We even had a special visit from Nana Kesler, who so lovingly made us individualized bookmarks and created special goody-bags for us. We were so thrilled that we literally almost knocked her over with one of our multiple group hugs. Madame had to dive to rescue her. (Next lesson: gentle touches...) Even the guinea pigs received Valentine's Day cards! They thought the cards were very tasty. We had another special presenter in this week, too! This time it was a visitor from Science World who taught us all about electricity and the way electrons travel through different circuits. We loved attempting the hands-on challenges that he gave us and trying to create different circuits of our own. We had a special treat for show-and-tell this week, too. Normally we play a game of "What's in your bag?" in French where we start out asking, "Is it a person? Is it an animal? Is it a thing?" Usually if we say it's an animal, we give a collective gasp and ask if it's living or non-living. The answer, of course, is always "non-living"... that is, until this week! Merci, Mia, d'avoir apporté ton chien! And we decided to try something different this week and bring some friends on our forest walk with us! We had a great time finding old friends and making new ones from Mme Paschalis' Grade 1/2 French class. For the most part, we did a good job of teaching them the boundaries and the rules of the forest. Extra photos...
