Winter Concert and Family Celebration

Yesterday was a very exciting day!  For several weeks, the students had been practicing two songs and a poem to share with the school, and their families during the Primary Winter Concert.  All their hard work paid off - they did a great job!  

Snowflakes, We're A Bunch of Jolly Snowman and Snowball (by Shel Silverstein) were a big hit.

After the concert, family members were able to join us for a celebration in our classroom.  After enjoying some refreshments, it was so much fun to see the children being the "teachers".  Children and their families or a partner chose a math or literacy centre and spent some time learning together.  The smiles in these pictures say it all.  Thank you to all the family members who were able to join us.  What a memorable day!

After some snacks and visiting, everyone went to work...
