Misty Monday 

We started out our morning singing our Days of the Week and Months of the Year songs by heart! Ms. Gray was very impressed that we had them memorized. We shared that on Friday this is how they sang the songs for Ms. Hayward.

For language we worked on our astronaut writing piece. We used our best writing and colouring to finish our work from last week. We used finger spaces and wrote what we would do if we were an astronaut!! Some of our friends would play basketball on the moon, some would meet aliens, some friends would fix something in space! Either way, we understood that in order to get into space we needed to use a rocket to get there!! We enjoyed writing and tried our best to impress Ms. Gray with following directions and working first before we played! :) She was very impressed.

We had fun in Gym then we had indoor recess! :)

For Math we worked on a smarties activity. Ms. Gray let us use smarties to sort, count, tally, and graph! We had SO much fun! We worked with partners and coloured our graphs when we were done. We have been doing a great job following directions and not eating the manipulatives!

During UOI one of our friends read us a story about the Solar System. We learned all about the different planets and the order that they travel around the sun. Then we learned the wish upon a star poem and wrote "I wish _____________." Some of our friends wished that everyone was happy or that they get a really cool toy (or candy) from their dad! We have been working on answering Ms. Gray's questions in complete sentences. Ms. Gray has been encouraging us to write the complete sentence starting with an upper case letter and ending with a period.

After another indoor recess, snack and french we had a show and share and worked on our phonics journals! Our friend brought in a LEMON for the letter L! Today we were working on the blend ss! We brainstormed some words that ended with the blend ss.

We had music today!! We practiced our dance and the words of the song for the Christmas Concert!
