Chicka Chicka Boom Boom!



Last week we read the book Chicka Chicka Boom Boom. We then acted out the story using a tree and large foam letters. The children had fun listening and learning!  We will continue to work on letter recognition and matching up lower case and upper case letters.  






The book.

Our very own coconut tree, filled with letters!


The letters all fell from the tree!



The children had to "rescue" their letters!
                            



                               


This week we have a table top version for the children to use to retell the story!

Terry Fox Day

Last Friday our school held our annual Terry Fox Run. Over $350 was raised for cancer research. Our students took part in our warm up, walk, shoe decorating and watched a video on the story of Terry Fox.  Our own Mrs. Shepley lead the warm up and the kids had a blast! Below is a link to the story in the Rivertown Times and a link to the ESPN story about Terry Fox we watched in class:
