Happy Friday!!!

We began the day signing our little French hearts out with Magic Systems, "Magic in the Air".  Here is the official video, followed by our short clip of happy singers.

Then we sang and danced to "Agadou".

In Dance, with Mrs. Lashley, students have been creating their own dances to "Uptown Funk".  The first video is a mash up of all their dances, followed by individual groups.

Group 1

Group 2

Group 3

 Half of Group 4 was helping Mme Bosse's students teach the assembly dance to the whole school, so they will add their dance to this blog at a later date.

In the middle block, we had our Recognition Assembly and our Volunteer Appreciation Assembly - we are lucky to have so many caring community members that volunteer their time to our school.  I love these assemblies because it gives us one more opportunity to recognize deserving students for their efforts.

At each assembly, we try to have a flash mob or a school wide dance.  This month Mme Bosse's class, along with Kendall and Lia from our clas,s taught the whole school a dance from Glee Club.  They did a terrific job!

What a great way to end the month!

At the assembly, we learned that our school raised over $13 000 with their chocolate fundraiser.  The parent committee did a wonderful job with this - they all work so hard to make our school a better place.  Our class raised over $1800 dollars towards this initiative!  We won a 5 pound chocolate bar to thank the students for their outstanding effort!  If your child was a little hyper this Friday evening, it may have to do with the chocolate consumed in class, during our Tea Time Read Aloud.
