Penguin presentation.

Today we had our penguin presentation. Our little visitor was an African penguin who lives in the West Edmonton Mall. Her trainer Megan told us lots about Tweedwick. She was raised by humans and so really likes it when Megan gives her fish.  The students were very excited to see a real live penguin and had lots of fun finishing off the afternoon watching some of the movie Happy Feet while eating some cute little penguin crackers.

Aggies Days Entries So Far

We have started to work on our entries to the Aggie Days art competition. Syudents have been working hard learning all about farm animals in Alberta and what Aggie Days is. We are working on our video entries and will post more projects as we finish them.We will find out if we won in April.

We Video!

This week we have started to look at our Technology project using We Video. Students have so far learned how to sign into the chrome books, accept a shared file and transfer the images into the We Video App.  We will be working next week to add music and some text to the videos. We will then begin the editing process to make our videos our own. A copy of the video will be sent to the coordinator of Aggie Days as part of our competition entry. Depending how big the files are I may post a few on here for you to enjoy. Come back often and check for updates!

Read-a-Thon Wrap Up Assembly

We have been working on achieving our read-a-thon goals for the past few weeks and on Friday we had our wrap up assembly. Students were able to enter to win prizes such as Flames tickets, a pizza party and a sundae party. With anticipation and excitement students waited patiently until it was time to Duct tape Mrs. Fradette to the gym wall. Every student was given a piece of duct tape and they were very excited to help stick our Principal to the wall. Two lucky students were chosen at random to pull the bench out. Voilà Mrs. Fradette was well and truly stuck! Check out the school website click here to see the photos.
