We started off our day with morning exploration time. After snack and outdoor recess, we came in for Brain Gym, Calendar, Morning Message and learned a bit about Family vocabulary in French. We learned two new songs about families. We then went to the gym with our friends from Mrs. Gronotte's class. We did some running, stopping and movements, a couple of cooperative team games and then did stations that involved: throwing, passing, kicking, balancing, jumping and 'scootering'. This was a lot of fun! After lunch, we came in for show and tell and a visit from Paul et Suzanne. We then had some literacy time. After, we met on the carpet for two exciting short video clips of ducks hatching! This was really neat. We learned that on Wednesday, for our field trip, we will be learning about 'les canards'. We then made a class brainstorm about what we know about ducks, and what we are wondering about ducks. We used an ipad app, 'Popplet', which was projected on to our screen and Madame Rebecca typed our questions and thoughts. This was really neat and engaging for the children. We then talked some more about the people who are in our family, and then we drew our family members. We then went out to visit the creek and have some imaginary play time in the tree area on the field.
