14.01.2022 Today the F-2 students took a step back in time into the Olden Days. Children wore authentic clothes to match the period; short pants, braces and caps, to dresses, lace and ribbons. They visited a mini museum in the gym that gave them a glimpse into the old versus the new. Items included a kerosene lantern, a record player, a typewriter, a 1910 dictaphone, old cameras, toys, phones and much more! The students took what they saw and heard and applied it to their Inquiry show after lunch. It was a great day and we are sure that the children came home with lots of memories.

11.01.2022 This week in 1/2T we were learning to use clues from our text to make inferences. One activity we did was a character suitcase challenge The students had to think of a character or story, and without using names, words of faces, they had to draw what you might find in their suitcase. Can you guess what they are? Write your answer with the suitcase number in the comments below..... Best played by those who are not in 1/2T! :)
