We've been learning that the importance of kindness is as easy as our A-B-Cs with the sweet board book. Kindness Matters here at Bridgeview!

I've been busy over the break hunting for new read aloud material. I can't wait to share my exciting finds!

Wondering what we will be up after the break? Here are a few of the events I've added to the calendar so far. Plus we have a couple of April birthdays to celebrate!

Look who arrived in our class today . . . 'Desk Pets'. Each student choose a pet that would become their own, gave it a name and wrote a journal entry to tell all about it. What a fun day! Ask your child to tell you about their new 'Desk Pet'.

It's National Poetry Month! To celebrate we will be reading and writing a variety of poems. Can't wait to get started!

As part of our exploration of Global Cultures, Div. 5 is learning about the ancient craft of weaving in a collaborative project with Suzanna Wright. Weaving is an important part of many Indigenous cultures around the world and right here in BC. Is weaving part of your heritage?

Such a great initiative! Last year Bridgeview Elem began a pallet garden project. With the help of HCTF we were able to purchase soil, seeds, tarps, a wagon and more. We can’t wait to get back at it in September.

Last week was a perfect time to explore 'Colour Theory'! Primary colours (red, yellow and blue) and secondary colours (orange, purple and green) filled the umbrella followed by drawing themselves dressed for the rain. Such fun!

Getting Spooky with Colour Theory! Here we are learning how to create tints and blend colours. We also created spooky stories to accompany our haunted houses. Such Fun!
