Remembrance Day

For Remembrance Day, we talked about the Poppy and how it is a symbol to help us acknowledge and remember our soldiers and the freedoms they have helped us gain. We decorated poppies and posted the art work with the poem “In Flanders Fields”. We talked about how privileged we are to live in a society such as we do in Canada!

Autumn Fun!

To welcome Autumn, we have decorated our classroom with some of our special art pieces, which include ink blotted leaves, pumpkin mobiles, an Autumn wreath, and hand printed leaves for our tree. We have enjoyed reading books and singing songs about Autumn. The children are looking forward to some upcoming apple tasting. We can’t wait to taste the delicious variety of apples!

East Casa Solves a Mystery!

We read an exciting book by Graeme Base called “The Eleventh Hour”. Our Casa children found clues and solved the mystery. We won’t spoil it for you but It was definitely someone we did not suspect!

Autumn!

North Casa began the new season of Autumn by learning about how apples grow.  We learned all the parts and life cycle of an apple, coloured worksheets, ‘pricked a shape’ apples and even decorated apples in our classroom.  We tasted Red Delicious, McIntosh, Golden Delicious and Granny Smith.  The apple tasting was delicious!
