Happy Friday

Happy Friday!
It has been a wonderful first week of school.  The children have definitely shown they have knowledge of our 4B’s at Pelican School

* Be Respectful  *Be Responsible  *Be Safe  *Be Here & Healthy


Today we had our first Write, Show and Share!  The children wrote amazing clues, read each clue, reread when it was needed and answered questions from their classmates.


Math Rotations
The children were excited to explore their new My Math Journals today.
They asked if they were going to do all of it this year and I said yes and there was another journal too. The students said, “Oh my, are we going to be smart!”
After our explorations we began Math Workshop rotations.




One rotation the students visited was finding sums using the SMART Board.
We are definitely enjoying lunch in the classroom.  Today we had a special lunch outside on the picnic tables with our classmates.
This week we had to wait until Friday for Phy. Ed with Mr. Millot!  The kids were ecstatic to finally be going to gym class.  Just a reminder we have gym on Mondays and Fridays so please make sure your child has gym shoes at school  ~ Thank YouJ

  1. Thanks for sharing the readers theater parts. I was wondering why Andrew only had some parts highlighted and not others.
