students learning about winter
By Amy Barnes, Paul Walker,
Mike Procter
Well, now that the cold and
gloomy days of November are
upon us again, most of the Kinder-
garten pupils have been wearing
their winter coats, hats, mittens,
snowpants and boots. It takes much
longer to get ready to go outside.
They have been learning the
"Remembrance Day Song" to sing
at the Remembrance Day assembly.
The children have started a new
unit about "fall" for their morning
centre where they are learning how
people and some animals prepare
for winter. You could find many
squirrels and bears hibernating in
the classroom.
In environmental studies centres
with their Grade 1 buddies, they
just completed the pumpkin unit
and soon will be starting a Christ-
mas unit. They made some great
jack -o -Interns with their Grade 6
buddies.
Both Kindergarten classes will
be going to the Goderich museum
to see "A Truly Canadian Christ-
mas" as part of the Christmas unit.
Grade 1 News
The Grade 1 class has been
working on pumpkin centres with
the Kindergarten pupils. The Grade
Is have been learning to do addi-
tion and know their number stories
to three. They have started their
second reader. It is called Catch a
Rainbow.
The Grade 1 pupils have enjoyed
working with their co-operative ed-
ucation student JoAnne Mason and
their two parent volunteers, Anne
Spivey and Jackie Garniss. The
class had a superb Halloween and
everyone got lots of goodies.
The Grade 1 "super kids" for the
past few weeks have been Margaret
Vincent, Staci Dunbar and Kyle Ja-
mieson. They like to look at their
pictures and see the neat toys and
souvenirs they bring into the class- ,
MOM.
Grade 2 News
The Grade 2 class enjoyed work-
ing at Halloween centres over the
past few weeks. In math, the class
is learning all about geometric
shapes and are currently making
their own shape books. The chil-
dren are becoming experts at identi-
fying prisms, cubes, cylinders,
cone`s, pyramids and spheres.
They made Canada geese as part
of their talk about getting ready for
winter. The Grade 2 classroom
looked like it had been invade by a
flock of Canada geese flying south
for the winter.
Students' Council
The students' council this year
already has held many events, in-
cluding a Halloween dance. Those
who dressed up were admitted free.
There also was a hat and tie day
in which every student wore a hat
tied and coming soon is a formal
black and white dance, meaning the
boys have to wear suits and the
girls have to wear dresses.
The students' council also orga-
nized the Remembrance Day as-
sembly. Several Remembrance Day
readings and poems were shared
and "The Remembrance Day Song"
was sung by all the pupils.
An honor guard was formed by
the Sparks, Brownies, Guides and
Cadets while representatives of
each class placed poppies on the
cross.
Following this Don Farnell of
the Wingham Legion Branch
shared some of his memories about
the wars and Remembrance Day.
We really enjoyed listening to his
experiences and hearing some war
songs as well. The assembly closed
with the Sparks, Brownies and
Guides singing "On My Honor"
and "Taps".
