Outdoor Challenge!!

It's been far too one since our last post - sorry!

We are in the middle of the Outdoor Challenge where we are doing all of our learning and discovering outside! We have loved this so far and will let the pictures speak for themselves!

It's Global Day of Play!!!!

Team 16 has had a blast playing with toys brought in from home! The only rule was no electronics.  It was amazing to see how they could keep themselves happy and busy for the entire day. There was lots of team work and sharing to be seen!

It's election time!!!!!

All of the Grade 4 and 5 students are knee-deep following the federal election! We divided ourselves into four political parties and are campaigning hard!! As part of the Student Vote program we are learning about Canadian poloitics and how the election process works! We will be casting our ballots on Oct. 19th too!

What we want in our Team this year!

Welcome to Team 16, 2015!

It is great to be back into the swing of things! We have spent the week re-connecting with old friends and getting to know new ones! I can tell that it's going to be a great year!

The Power of Pink!!

Our school (along with many others) supported Pink Shirt Day, by wearing all sorts of pink! We watched videos, shared stories and listened to songs that told the sad stories of bullying as well as the poisitve changes that people can make in eachother's lives. 

We learned that we can be the difference!

The Great Kindness Challenge!

Linwood school is taking part in the Great Kindness Challenge. This is a week filled with finding and sharing kindness all throughout the school! After learning the "Kind-Hearted Hand" song (check it out on YouTube) we each made a kind-hearted hand print to send to California to attempt to set a Guiness Book World Record! 

Here are some of the hands that we made!!!

Busy as ever!!!

Happy new year to you all!

We are finally done our bodies! After studying the body systems we have become scientists of the body. We built our bodies with materials such as straws, bags and paper to show all the parts of the body systems. 

Here they are!

We care about Terry Fox!

We shared some videos, a book and a slideshow about Terry Fox and the things he did for Canada. We thought about how Terry Fox must have felt and all of the words that we could use to describe him. We want to carry on his message of courage and bravery and support his cause to raise money for cancer research!
