Thank-you to the student who made Goosey this warm new poncho to wear! Looks like he'll be okay in this cold weather!

We began the day with our usual Circle sharing time, and some students went to do their auditions for the school's opera with Ms. Smith. We are eager to hear who gets these parts! In Art we began creating a new piece that showcases 4 or 6 mugs with interesting and colourful patterns on each mug, each table, and each background wall. These are turning out great so far! Just looking at those steaming mugs helps us feel warmer!


We will continue with this artwork next week. Stay tuned for the finished pieces!

We also spent time today reading independently during DEAR, reading The Boundless together during Language Arts (finishing chapter 10 and adding to our story boards), and having a bonus choice day in Phys. Ed. with Ms. Williamson's class. Mr. Janzic would like to remind students with long hair to please always have an elastic at school with which to put their hair up in the gym.

Our day wrapped up with a school-wide mental health activity, playing some drama games that helped students to illustrate and identify different emotions. We focused on how people show different emotions in their faces, bodies, and actions.
