Halloween Festivities

Orange Shirt Day

We wore orange to honour the survivors of Residential

schools and in memory of those who passed. Every Child Matters! 🤗

Terry Fox Run!

We enjoyed this beautiful day running in Terry Fox’s memory. We learned about his determination to run for all Canadians despite his pain and illness. Terry raised $24 million during his Marathon of Hope and since then over $750 million has been raised. Morris School contributed $1475.40 this year!

Student Vote 2021

Canada held a federal election this week and our class got to vote in Student Vote. We learned about different parties, the candidates running and who our leaders are. We looked at some of the leaders’ platforms and talked about how each candidate hopes to make positive changes for Canada. 

Hands-on Math!

Sorting, counting, adding and graphing are all made much easier and more fun using cereal! Each student received a bag of Fruity Os to count. We discussed different and more efficient ways of counting such as grouping by tens. We also sorted them by colour in order to graph the results later on. Last we compared our graphs with a partner and discussed how to compare results and how to find out how many more of one colour there were than another. Finally we ate our math snack!

Welcome Back to School

Welcome back to school! We have been getting to know one another and building our classroom community! I’m looking forward to a new year and some return to normal. We were excited to visit the library, the music room and the gym! Next week a few more students will be returning as well! Here’s to a fun filled year of learning 2021-2022!
