Grey Cup Week

Last Week, we did many different activities for the Grey Cup to get excited. 

Our poem of the week was "Green is the Colour, Football is the Game." We are now very good at singing the WHOLE song. We learned how companies use different ways to advertise. We chose to advertise the Grey Cup with posters (Check them out at Conferences! :) ). We had a Rider picture on the board where we brainstormed different nouns, verbs and adjectives. During Daily 5, in Word Work, we wrote down some of the words in alphabetical order and then made sentences with them. One of the days we dressed up in Rider gear and took photos at our school's Rider Photo Booth. We made and presented poems and chants with our grade 8 reading buddies. To end off the week before the Grey Cup, we had a Grey Cup Celebration assembly. We watched videos, looked at pictures and saw Mr. Williams and Mr. Lockert have a competition to see who was better for the "Saskatchewan Roughrider Team." 

AND OUR EXCITEMENT GOT EVEN BIGGER WHENNNNNNNN ........ THE RIDERS WON THE GREY CUP!!!!!

Operation Christmas Child

Our class will be putting  boxes together for Operation Christmas Child this year.  If you do not know what Operation Christmas Child is, here is a link to tell you more about it.
Operation Christmas Child

 In December, our `Million Acts of Friendship` theme is Just Be Generous.  I know it is only November but I thought this would be a great opportunity for our class.  We put the boxes together near the end of November, so its close to December. :)

I will give you more information over the next couple days but would like to do a poll to see what parents are interested in when it comes to putting boxes together.

In what way would you like your child to participate in putting together boxes with our classroom ?

Put together a box with a group of students

Put together a box with one other student

Put together their own box
