Thank You, Crystal!!

Room 4 and Mrs. Steinhoff would like to that our TCI student helper, Crystal, for all of her hard work during her time with us!  Crystal was part of a special program that aloud her to join us in the classroom three times a cycle.  She has been such a great addition to Room 4 and we are all very happy that she has decided to continue volunteering now that her practicum is done.

Thank you, Crystal!!!

Special Messages to Each Other

Sometimes, we all have a bad day. Mrs. Steinhoff got an idea from a colleague to help kids think positively whenever they might need a "put-up". We worked on writing nice things to each other. Then Mrs. Steinhoff organized the ideas and handed them back. We glued them on to a special paper that had our names typed in a special font. She's going to laminate them so the posters can always be a special keepsake. Here's some pictures of us working on them. - Room 4

A Giraffe and a Half . . .

Read Aloud in the Library -

Ms. Solar read our class a book
It was great, deserves a second look
Now we'll search for our own books
And get cozy and read in a nook!

Preparing for our Invention Show!

Science Rules!!

Poetry Paradise!

This morning, Mrs. Steinhoff started by reading us some poems. Some of the poems were "brutal", "not funny" and "boring"! Then, we set out to find some that were actually worth reading and sharing.

Here is a poem we wrote about our experience.

We now think some poems might be ok.
But we still think some should be taken away
Although some were nice, but still pretty weird,
One even had "Pauly" growing a beard

We'll try again some other time
And work together to bust some rhymes - and maybe eat limes!

Happy New Year!

Welcome back, Everyone!  I hope you all had a restful break!  I spent most of my time getting together with my family and friends, which is my favourite way to spend the holiday.  I am looking forward to all of the new and exciting things coming up in the next few months.  Tumbling Rally club will be starting this week!  We also have a field trip to the Forks on February 14th!  On Friday, we will be sharing our Inventions with our schoolmates.  It's great to be back in Room 4! 

How did you spend your break?  What are you most looking forward to this term?
