We had a very busy and fun-filled day last Friday! We had Mrs.Gabriel, a First Nations Elder, visit our classroom to teach us about the importance of animal tracks, scat and skulls. The students were amazed with the beautiful pictures and samples of animal skulls and tracks (and plastic scat!) We couldn't believe how huge the Grizzly bear and Moose tracks were and how interesting the skulls were. The students were even brave enough to put their head inside the jaw of a black bear!! After creating some beautiful stamping wildlife scenes, we began to enjoy our Secret Friendship Snack. The children absolutely loved delivering their surprise snacks to their friends just as much as they enjoyed opening up their own bags. We had a fun afternoon reading our Valentine's Day cards, enjoying some goodies and playing some boardgames. This will be a day to always remember. Thank you parents for your support in making it happen.
