Just a reminder that there is school tomorrow.  For homework tonight please to the website Penguins on Ice (Make a Sentence).

For No Excuse Words practice today we did spelling staircases on our mats, the iPad and the Promethean Board.

In LA today we read the Nursery Rhyme Jack and Jill.  Here is a little youtube clip:

In health today we talked about the Grain Group.  We learned that you should have between 5-12 servings on grains every day.  We also learned how grain is milled into flour when we watched the video below:

In Art we did a primary and secondary colour blocking activity.  Here are the kids hard at work and an example of the finished product:

In science we continued to talk about thick and thin paint.  We painted an ocean with thick paint and thin paint.  We made thin paint by mixing the thick paint with water.  We found out:

We learned two new words; opaque and transparent.  The thick paint is opaque and the thin pain is transparent.  We are going to learn more about this tomorrow.

Have a great night!
