We started off with each student receiving his or her part for the Christmas Concert reading (our class is doing a reading that we wrote, which is the Christmas Story in our words). Please encourage your child to practice at home. The goal is that they'll have it memorized by concert night. :)
Then we spent some time catching up and overdue work and picking work to do that wasn't done but could be completed (ketchup and pickles - catching up and picking).
Finally 9:15 rolled around and we started getting ready to go to the Chilliwack River Fish Hatchery. We had an awesome time. Lynn was our tour leader, and she showed us all the different types of salmon they work with at the hatchery, she dissected a few for us, showed us how to tell a male from a female, let the kids touch the fish and the eggs, and showed us all the different parts of the hatchery and what they do in each area. The rain held off for us, and the kids learned so much. Thanks to Amber, Shawna, Suzanne and Joel for joining us on that adventure!
After the field trip we spent some time on Math corrections and then we had Art. The kids finished up their spirographs and poppy art (check out our hallway bulletin board), and then we went off to Chapel.
Enjoy these photos from our field trip today. :)
