Fire Safety Week

Last week at our school the firemen stopped by to give us an update on the fire safety rules. Stella our safety skunk was very excited to see some of her old friends back to review the important rules of Fire Safety. Laura in our room volunteered to show everyone how to STOP DROP and ROLL and because of her wonderful demonstration she won a t-shirt. Way to go Laura! On Tuesday when we return to school we will refresh everyone's mind about how important it is to practise fire safety at home and school. I also hope everyone remembered to check their fire alarms at home and to make and practise an escape route just in case there was ever a fire.

Video Conference with Texas

Today we had a our first video conference with Dallas, Texas. It was a big success. Our international project with Texas is very eventful and we started it today.We met our pen pals for the first time today. The students were able to share something about themselves and to ask a question to their pen pal. We also learned that our friends in Texas wear school uniforms. The girls wear dresses and the boys wear a dress shirt and shorts or pants depending on the weather. Soon we will be planting our Red Emperor Tulips next week and having our first live weather report as well. This is where each student has the chance once a year to tell their Texas friends what the weather is doing on the Miramichi and our Texas friends do the same. Every month we share and learn more about what it is like in each others community. Stay tuned for more exciting news later in the month and the rest of the year.
