Oh, The Places You'll Go!

Oh the places you'll go! There is fun to be done! 
There are points to be scored. There are games to be won. 
And the magical things you can do with that ball 
will make you the winning-est winner of all. - Dr. Seuss


To honour Dr. Seuss' birthday on March 2, we read aloud his stories all week. As a reader response to Oh, The Places You'll Go!, we discussed what we wanted to be when we grew up. Students had an opportunity to draw pictures and write stories about their future aspirations. Here's a sample:

"I want to be a teacher." - Evelyn
"I want to be a vet when I grow up." - Alexandria
"When I grow up I want to be a teacher and a baby school teacher, and a mom and
a big sister." - Kamryn
"I want to be a mom and a teacher when I grow up." - Aaniyah
"I want to be an astronaut, a scientist and a singer." - Kai
"I want to be a car when I grow up." - James
"I want to be a police officer when I grow up." - Mason
"I want to be a karate master." - Leticia
"I want to be an astronaut when I grow up." - Joemar
"I want to be a mommy." - Mila 



It was fun while it lasted 

Our students LOVED being out in our spring-like weather! We enjoyed some extra outdoor play and discovery.

STEM Learning Continues


Each day, we place open-ended STEM challenges in our learning centres. Using plastic straws and connectors children create a variety of structures, from the CN Tower to churches. They have a chance to use their imagination, to build, to test and to collaborate.
