Highlights

We used watercolour paint and salt to create a background for our snowflakes.  Students also wrote a cinquain about either snowflakes or winter.  This was the format for our cinquains:

1 Noun

2 Adjectives

3 Action words

A 4 word phrase about the topic

A noun that relates to our topic

Here is an example:

Snowflakes

Light, fluffy

Floating, twirling, landing

Sparkles in the sun

Winter

There will be a substitute teacher on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of next week as Ms. Bain is at an assessment conference in Red Deer.

Thank you for attending parent-teacher conferences and for supporting your child with their learning!
