The Gingerbread Hunt!





The Gingerbread hunt was fun. We had to use clues. I found him on the chimney in the house. There was a clue by the water fountain, office, Mrs. Skog's office and in the library. We got to bake and then decorate them and then eat them. We had lots of fun. - Lincoln


We were finding clues everywhere. We did lots of fun stuff together. We found him in the kitchen and he came out of the book. We baked Gingerbread cookies. We rolled out the dough and made one big one and two small ones. Then Mrs. Penner put them in the oven. Then we decorated them. We ate them after library. They were good. - Emma

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!





We put eggs and oil in a bowl. We mixed it together. The colours were orange and brown. We were baking cupcakes. We put icing and sprinkles on the cupcakes. They were delicious. - Carmen

We made some orange and then we made some brown. We put half orange into the muffin tin and then we put half chocolate in the muffin tin. We took them home if we wanted. It was fun baking cupcakes. - Alexis

Ms Martens cut the top off. I got to take out the guts and seeds. It felt yucky. We carved the pumpkin and we baked the seeds. They tasted good. We had a lot of fun. - Damon

We had to take out the goo. Ms Martens cut off the top. AJ didn't like to touch the goo. We made jack-o-lanterns. It was fun. - Taylor

We have a pupa!

Oct. 30th - Our first pupa!

We have mealworms. They are pretty cool. I had so many in my hand. They are really squirmy. We now have 3 in the pupa stage. They start off as an egg, then they are a mealworm, then a pupa and then a beetle. The pupa is very cool and twitches. A mealworm has 6 legs. When we got them the little ones were very excited, but the big ones not very much. When you touch their back they squirm. They are awesome. - Zach

Grade 1/2 Field Trip





We went to the Manitoba Museum and the Science Gallery. I liked when we went into the mirrors and we kept slipping in there. I went into the space rocket and sat on a dolly and pushed it around. We went into the snake pit. We saw wolves and felt the fox fur. I'm glad I went. - Raydence


We went to the museum on a bus. The bus ride was good and I fell asleep. I liked the Nonsuch at the Manitoba Museum. I liked building a car at the Science Gallery. I got to race my car. We saw fossils, a polar bear, buffalo, and a whale. It was a good day and I had fun! - Carmen


The fox fur was cool. The buffalo fur was cool and the bear fur was cool too. I liked going into the cave. We saw a tee pee. I wish we could have gone into it, but we aren't allowed. I liked the theater and the Science Gallery. I wish we could have stayed in there longer. I liked going on the space pull. I liked the Nonsuch because it was huge! I liked going in the houses and into the sea. We learned about the Aboriginals and how they hunted for buffalo and beavers. I had a great time! - Zach

I put a seed in the dirt. We fed it water. Put dirt on top of it. It grew. Our plants are very healthy. The plant in the cupboard was not healthy. It was tall, but had no sun. The plant without water and sun didn't grow. We had a good day enjoying our plants.- Lucas

Mrs. Penner made bread with us. We made flour out of wheat and grinded it. We took all the ingredients and mixed them all together. We smacked the bread to get out the air and make the right shape. We baked the bread. I had mine with honey. I like homemade whole wheat bread. - Sophie

The bread was tasty. I had 2 kinds of jam and honey on the bread. We put flour and oil and water in the bowl. I had fun. - Katie
