WEDNESDAY

Its hard to believe its the middle of the week already! We had a wonderful chapel this morning, led by Mrs Priebe's Grade 4 class. They were talking all about planting the seed, watering it and taking care of new baby Christians!  This afternoon we had a rousing game of soccer - girls vs boys... with a final score of ZERO - ZERO!!! What a fun game! We also solved the mystery of the food groups and started work on our art project... building a plastercine Saskatchewan. Thanks to Mrs Priebe and Ms Thiessen for their good idea!

We enjoyed listening to creative writing stories this morning (what a creative class!!) and finished off our math unit.  Students may have some math work to do at home in preparation for our test on Thursday.

FRIDAY

We had a very chilly but good day at school today.  It is definitely time to bring on the toques and mitts - recess is cold out there!! I am not sure what happened to fall, but it looks like we're barreling ahead with winter! The soup lunch fund raiser was a big hit today, and we look forward to other big events like that in the future. Two to keep in mind are PJ day and picture day coming up this week. (not to be confused with each other!!)

HAVE A FANTASTIC WEEKEND! GO RIDERS!!!

THURSDAY - FIELD TRIP DAY!!

We had a very cold, but wonderful day at the Western Development Museum! The morning started with a threshing demonstration, which was very interesting. We got to see how it was done in the old days and how the use of horses and then steam and gas power has really changed farming as we know it.

Thank you so much to our chaperones: Mrs Quiring, Mrs Prium and Mrs Fehr. You are wonderful!

These are some pictures that I got from the Western Development Museum web site.
Enjoy!

WEDNESDAY 15th SEPTEMBER

Wednesdays are wonderful days! We love chapel!! Thanks to Mrs Nicholls for doing the talk in chapel today about the Holy Spirit.  We also got to have gym with Mr Driedger today, which is always a very exciting and fun experience!
This afternoon we spent some time looking at the shape of Saskatchewan and how it is laid out on the map, and we will continue to examine some prairie culture tomorrow at the Western Development Museum.
This afternoon during Christian Ethics, we talked about how much Jesus loves to fellowship with us, and we had several acting stars do a drama for us about some of Jesus' disciples. (Thanks to Austin, Cassie, Celine, Aleah & Mikayla for working through recess to get ready.)

Praying for great weather tomorrow!

HOMEWORK:
Work on memorizing spelling and verse
MATH: finish both sides of the first page of the worksheet pkg.

TUESDAY

Today we spent quite a bit of time reviewing some patterning concepts in math, and started looking at how those pictures translate into equations.  We played a rousing game of soccer... which ended up in a tie! What excellent soccer players we have!!
In health we continued our discussion about healthy food choices. During the last period of the day, we had a special guest visit from Miss Thiesen (who is working with Mrs Priebe this year), who taught us how to draw Saskatchewan properly. What  a neat experience!! Thank you Miss Thiesen!!
