Welcome To Our Classroom

On Wednesday, April 26th we are having an Open House at our school. The school-wide theme is the ocean. This is the opportunity for you to visit our classroom and see your child’s writing, math, art, and computer assignments. The students in Division 9 have been working hard and we hope to see you on Wednesday afternoon!

The students in Division 9 have been working hard designing and colouring their kites. They have been using crayons and pencil crayons before outlining their work with a permanent black felt marker. We are waiting for a windy day this Spring to fly the kites in our playground area. Click on the image to see a larger version.

Welcome to Division 9!

I’d like to welcome everyone to Division 9 which is a grade 2/3 class with 19 students. We are located in room # 11 of our school. In Art, the students have been creating First Nations salmon. They coloured their salmon, cut them out, and then used the leftover scrap paper to stuff the salmon with eggs or roe. The artwork is on the bulletin board outside of our classroom. Please feel free to check out their wonderful work.

Art Project – Yarn Sticks

The students in Division 10 created their own yarn sticks. I purchased the wood, made individual pieces, and provided coloured feathers and beads. The students should be proud of their work which is now displayed on the bulletin board in the hallway outside of our classroom. If you have some time, please have a look at their great work.

First Nations – Salmon

The students in Division 10 were fortunate to have Dawn from Indigenous ( Aboriginal ) Education visit our classroom. She taught the students how to make First Nations salmon. After cutting out their fish they used the remaining paper to create salmon eggs inside their artwork. Keep up the good work Division 10!

Let’s Go Fly A Kite

The students in Division 11 have finished designing and colouring their kites. It took me a few weeks to put all of the kites together. We are now waiting for a windy day at our school so the students can fly their kites on the playground. The kite shown below was designed and coloured by Onyu.

Collage – With Pictures and Words

I found a fun art activity for students where you make a collage at home using pictures and words. A collage is the assemblage of different materials. All they needed at home is scissors, tape or glue and a piece of paper for their background. They were encouraged to use magazines, newspapers and/or cardboard food packaging ( like cereal boxes ).

Hearts In The Window Movement

In Art the students learned about the Hearts In The Window movement which is spreading around the world. It encourages people to display something heart-shaped in their home where neighbours and passersby can see, in the hopes of raising a few spirits during these challenging times. It also shows support for essential workers like doctors, nurses and grocery workers.
