Backwards Day!! (A variation of casual day in grade 5/6)

Today was hot lunch and casual day.  We like to spice up casual day in our classroom, so we decided yesterday that we would wear casual clothes....backwards!! What a lot of fun! Here we are on Backwards Day!

Ava, Charity, and Tori from the back....or is it the front?

 

A wave from Josiah--Hello? or Goodbye?

 

Faith even has her hair upside-down and backwards! Joseph has his seat backwards!

 

A ninja?....no it's Jack with a backwards hoodie under his coat.

Emily and Joey--I had to say "frown" to get them to smile since it is backwards day....

 

Here is Michael and Bethany.  She had 8 articles of clothing on backwards!! Wow!

 

Gabe with eyes in the back of his head!

Bon Appetit!

Bonjour!  Today Mrs. Dehkurdi finished up her French unit with a tasty treat! The students all made their own pizza and videoed a scripted cooking show in French to show us how they did it.  Here are some pictures from the kitchen.  

 

 

 

 

 

Then back in the classroom, they got to eat their tasty creations.  Some groups had LOTS of pizza!! Here is Zach with his own pie!

 

"Now, we have to divide this evenly!"

 

No dividing for Desmond! He got the whole thing!

 

Here is Sharon.  She only ate ONE piece....

 

Au Revoir!

Remembrance Day Ceremony

The Remembrance Day Assembly was today.  We had presentations from each homeroom class as well as Special Recognition for Brother Hugh Message and A Special Tribute to Brother Edwin Dodd, a Top Gun Fighter Pilot in the 50s.  Our class sang a song called "Thank you, Soldiers" by Michael and Angela Sounders.  Good job to everyone!


I am not sure about the clicks and flashes of light and apologize it is not better quality. 
Thank you to all our veterans and soldiers who have given their lives to make our countries what they are today.

Name Towers!

We have been working on our "Name Towers" for two art blocks. They look so cool! Still a work in progress, but next time we will be able to mount them on black paper for a great 3-D effect.

This project teaches dimension, 2-D letters, patterns, color combos etc. 

We had a really good time working on these together! They look great, everyone!
