Our day would normally have begun with PE class, but seeing as the gym has been transformed for our Christmas concerts, we changed gears got together with our friends in Division 8 for a Trivia Challenge Game Show. We pitted our Santa, Grinch, Frosty and Rudolph teams against one another in a battle of logic and wits. It was a closely contested game, but in the end Team Santa prevailed and took home the grand prize of Ring Pops for all 14 members. After recess the class worked to finish the Holiday Poems Art Posters and their Christmas Fractions worksheets. After lunch, and before the band concert, the students had a choice of silent reading or doing Christmas decorations in our class. We capped off our day with the Grade 6 & 7 band concerts, as well as a performance by the JKE choir, which included a number of division 10 students.
REMINDER: It is Christmas Crafts day tomorrow in class, so please send your child with clean, label-free glass jar. Also, tomorrow is the deadline for getting the Secret Santa toys in for our Gift exchange on Friday. (Some students will be away on Thursday and Friday, so it is very important that everyone who's participating gets their present before the Holiday break.) Finally, we have received nearly all of the permission slips and the $5 necessary for our Christmas party on Friday. If you have not handed in your permission form and money, please bring it tomorrow.
