Daily Update:
Even with such an eventful day, we started off with our regular routine. We watched the morning announcements, and our spelling word was “permission.” For Show, Not Tell, our prompt was “She was hurt when she fell.” We doodled a Remembrance Day scene for the last time, then got ready to board the bus for skating. A big thank you to all the adults who helped us tie and untie skates and even joined us on the ice!

Recess:
When we returned from the LBA, we grabbed a quick snack and dashed outside for some fresh air. Back in class, we prepared for the Remembrance Day ceremony and then went to the gym for the 11:00 ceremony. A heartfelt thank you to everyone in the community who joined us to honor this meaningful day.

After Lunch:
We talked about the difference between being friends and being friendly, especially how the tone of our words can change their meaning. We also read from The One and Only Ivan. Ivan discovered that his painting for Ruby needed a single human word: HOME.

PE:
PE was held indoors today. We started with some warm-up laps and tried new games involving nerf balls, basketball, and a few running races. Mr. Ross might be the fastest runner in the school!

End of Day:
Instead of our Book of Gratitude, we focused on our Remembrance Day posters. We signed our Home to School Books, and some students received a Timberwolves ticket in their folders. A quick reminder: no school for students tomorrow or Monday. Enjoy your long weekend, and see you on Tuesday!

Picture of the Day:
A huge thank you to all the parents and grandparents who joined us for both skating and our Remembrance Day ceremony. We’re lucky to have such an amazing community here in Napan!
