🏺 Stepping Back in Time

Our class has been traveling through history—no time machine required! We explored the amazing worlds of Ancient Egypt, Ancient Rome, Ancient China, and Ancient Greece. We learned about their people, buildings, inventions, and daily life.

To show what we learned, we created detailed dioramas. Some showed towering pyramids, others busy Roman streets, Chinese palaces, or Greek temples. Each one told a story from the past, bringing these ancient civilizations to life in miniature form.

It was a creative way to connect art and history—and to imagine what it might have been like to live long, long ago.

🌍 Stories to Save the Earth

This week, our imaginations and creativity came together to celebrate our planet! We wrote stories about saving the Earth—filled with heroes, clever ideas, and ways to protect nature.

To go with our writing, we made colorful coffee filter art Earth characters. Using markers and water, we blended bright blues and greens, then added faces, arms, and legs to bring our little planets to life.

Our classroom is now full of Earths with big smiles and even bigger hearts—reminding us that we can all help take care of our world. 💙💚

🗳 Student Vote: Learning About Canada’s Federal Election

 

Our class has been learning all about Canada’s federal election! We explored what political leaders and candidates do, and how each party has a platform—a set of ideas and plans for our country.

To put our learning into action, we took part in the Student Vote program. We each received a real ballot, marked our choice in private, and placed it in the ballot box—just like in an actual election.

It was a great way to learn about democracy, how voting works, and why every voice matters. 🇨🇦

Baby Everly's 4th visit

Baby Everly Visits Again! 👶💖

Today we had a very special visitor — Baby Everly came for her 4th visit to our class! She’s 7 months old now and growing fast.

Everly is always so happy — she smiles at everyone and lights up the room! You can tell she absolutely loves her older brother, and it’s so sweet to see them together.

She doesn’t have any teeth yet, but she’s already enjoying yummy foods like pureed carrots, potatoes, sweet potatoes, strawberries, and even chicken!

Everly also loves to play with her toys and explore the world around her. She’s curious, cute, and full of joy.

Thanks for visiting again, Everly! We love watching you grow! 🍼🥕🍓💛

🏛 Monsters in Famous Places

 

This week, we became artists, researchers, and storytellers all at once! First, we each chose a famous structure from around the world—like the Eiffel Tower, the Great Wall of China, or the Sydney Opera House. We researched our chosen landmark to learn what makes it special, then painted it in bright, beautiful colors.
But we didn’t stop there—each of us imagined a one-of-a-kind monster that lived inside our structure! Some were silly, some were spooky, and some were just plain weird. We gave them names, special powers, and backstories to explain how they ended up there.
It was a mix of art, geography, and imagination that made our classroom feel like a world tour—monster style! 🌍👹🎨

Builders in the Making

🏗 Towers and Bridges Challenge!

This week, our class became engineers! We’ve been learning all about building strong and stable structures. Our challenge was to design towers and bridges that met special criteria—like standing tall without falling, or holding weight without bending. We worked in teams, tested our designs, and made improvements to make them stronger.

It was tricky, but we discovered that planning, teamwork, and problem-solving help build the best structures. By the end, we had some amazing creations—and a classroom full of proud engineers!

⛸ Gliding Into Winter Fun

This winter, we laced up our skates and hit the ice! Week by week, we practiced and improved our skating skills—learning to glide smoothly, turn, stop, and even skate backwards.

It was a season full of fresh air, rosy cheeks, and lots of laughter. We’re proud of how much we’ve grown as skaters! ❄️
