Another Awesome Week at School!

We have a party chart where we get checkmarks for good behaviour.  Mrs. Hosie promised that if we got twenty checkmarks, her dog Tucker could come visit.  Tucker is a three-year-old Brittany Spaniel.  We all got to take a turn petting Tucker.  Tucker is the best!

This week in gym we continued to work on soccer skills.  We learned proper passing involves using the inside of your foot, planting one foot, and following through with the other foot.  For long passes it is important to have some strength behind the pass.  We also played fun warm-up games in gym including Octopus and Catch the Dragon's Tail! We are learning important skills while having fun.

This week Mrs. Hosie started putting math challenges on the board.  We worked hard to solve the math problems and most of us were successful!  Then Mrs. Hosie had a draw for a free pizza and Nathen, MacKenzie, and Brooklyn won.  Those math questions were extremely hard.
