Fancy Nancy and the Too-Loose Tooth (K & Gr 1)

I got a loose tooth! Me too! Me too! Just about all of us girls either had a tooth come out recently or was about to lose a tooth. How funny?

Popcorn and chocolate chip cookies was our treats! Yummy! If you had a loose tooth today, you would lose it! We talked about the book as we ate our treats. Of few of the girls did not read the book and could not answer the questions. Mrs. Patricia told them that in order to participate in the book club, you have to read the monthly book. For the rest of us, we kept answering questions and talking about the parts that we liked the best.

After we finished our treats and discussion, it was craft time. We didn't play a game this month. Instead of a fancy tooth necklace, we made Fancy Tooth Boxes. Each of us was given a wooden box and we got to paint it. Some of us painted our boxes like a rainbow. Some of us painted our boxes with silver sparkles. They are all so different and beautiful! I can't wait to lose my tooth and put it in my special Fancy Tooth Box!

This book club gets better and better at each meeting. I can't wait until next month!

Calendar Mysteries February Friend (Gr 2 & 3)

Oh my! We had such a good time at book club last month (sorry, I forgot to write about it)!

We played a board game called, Calendar Mysteries. Mrs. Patricia made the game up. We had such a big group that we had 2 games going at the same time! We had to choice a colored game marker and roll the dice to see who went first. The card deck were the cover of the book. On the other side, was a question. If you answered correctly, you got to roll the dice and move. The gameboard had different directions on it. Some of us moved forward just to move backwards. And some of us moved forward and keep moving forward. It really showed who read the book. Some of us, didn't move for a very, very, very long time. The questions had us answer in details and had us to really think.
