This morning we celebrated with the rest of the school at our first Advent Liturgy of the year.  We celebrated the spirit of Hope!  6C did a great job putting it on.

We learned the digraph ch today.  A digraph is when you put two consonants together and they make a new sound.  We pretended that we were choo-choo-trains when we practiced the sound.

We then learned the word family uch.
We made words like touch, such and much.

In LA we read the story Olive the Other Reindeer by J. Otto Seibold and Vivian Walsh.  You can read the story online by going on the FMPL website and clicking on the TumbleBooks link.  After reading the story we thought maybe we could be reindeer too.  So we decided to fill out a job application form.  Check out some of the examples below:

In gym today we were really lucky to have Lou Pote from Fort McMurray Baseball come in to teach us a bit about baseball.  Check out the picture below of our winners of the hardest throw (Coach Lou used the laser gun to measure):

In Math, we worked on solving tricky addition stories.  Check out this tricky one:

Have a great night!
