"Jingle Bell Rock!"

Dear Grade 3s and 2s, 

We have been learning how to ""hum the Rock and Roll Christmas song called Jingle Bell Rock. Did you know that Jingle Bell Rock is the most popular song in our class? I know that because I collected data! Last week, we did an online survey of favourite Christmas songs, and Jingle Bell Rock was the preferred song over Jingle Bells, Silent Night and even Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.

Here is a link to the song Jingle Bell Rock so that you can continue to practise humming Jingle Bell Rock for our Christmas "hum-a-long." Give it a try!

Don't forget that we are doing Christmas Crafts tomorrow. Don't forget to wear painting and/or old clothes: the paint won't come off clothing. 

Mr. D is very excited about this special day; I'll see you all tomorrow:)

Good News About Friday...and "painting" clothes

 Good Afternoon Students,

Mr. D missed all of you, and it's great to be back! I shared some good news with you today. On Friday, we will be doing a few cool Christmas crafts in class.  We'll put on some Christmas music, work on the crafts, and enjoy the Christmas atmosphere! I wanted to remind you to wear old clothes and/or clothes for painting. We will be using paints that do not come off clothes, so in case of a painting "mishap" please avoid wearing good or special clothes. 

It should be fun! Enjoy the rest of your Wednesday:)

Mr. D:)

Try our first survey!

Dear Students, 

We have been learning about surveys and collecting data. Mr. D thought it would be fun for our students to try filling out a survey so that we can discuss and analyze the results tomorrow. Mr. D would like to know what the most popular Christmas song is in our Grade 2/3 class; so here is the survey question: 

What is your favourite Christmas song?

Click the link below and you can make your choice. I hope you enjoy doing this!
