It's Been A Busy Spring!
We’ve had a very busy spring in the Grade 1/2 class! During our last visit to Little Cat Creek, we went snowshoeing through the woods. We had lots of fun trying to run and jump in the snow. We loved wearing pink shirts and dresses to support anti-bullying initiatives on Pink Shirt Day! As the weather warmed up, we started to take our coats off at recess, and we even celebrated with a recess conga-line! In Math, we learned about fractions by measuring while making cookies.
