Mrs. Sloane LOVES Christmas Lights and SNOW!
She was very excited that her lights were covered in so much beautiful SNOW!
We worked on persuasive paragraph writing!
Students created a FOUR square planner highlighting their favourite food or snack and then wrote their paragraph! Mrs. Sloane was very impressed with their work today!
Tomorrow studnets will write an opinion paragraph about thier favourite celebration!
In Science, we continued to explore different materials and objects in the classroom that are magnetic!
Students should be suitably dressed for current and forecasted weather conditions (in winter clothing, including snow pants, socks and warm boots, not shoes). They are expected to play outside before the 9:09 am bell and during morning and lunch recess periods.
Students remain outside of the school until the bell rings. A general guideline for coming inside is when winter temperatures reach below -20°C, but they still need to be fully prepared every day even if it is below -20°C as we know that weather warms up and cools down throughout the day.
In addition, classes often go outside for Daily Physical Activity, or outdoor learning.
Tips to Keep Kids Safe in Cold Weather
As indicated above, on most cold winter days students will continue to have regularly scheduled outdoor play time / outdoor learning time at school. Students will be safe and have fun outdoors if they:
- Dress in layers, with a wind resistant outer layer
- Wear a winter jacket, snow pants, and a warm hat or hood
- Have waterproof mittens or insulated gloves (thin fabric gloves are not warm enough and soak through easily)
- Have something to cover their face, such as a scarf, neck tube or facemask
- Wear warm and waterproof footwear (not running shoes or rubber boots)
- Have extra socks and mittens / gloves in their backpack in case they get wet
