"Can I have a stool, Mr. Hamer?"
Let's see...hmmm...

She likes the big snowman ornament.
It's colourful.
Nice!
How about a bell?
Up near the top of the tree.
A disco ball ornament.
That's good there.
Snow adorns this ornament.
A happy smile...

"I've got Frosty!"
Looks great right there!
A little stocking...
Will fit nice near the bottom of the tree.
A gingerbread lady.
Pretty.
Thank you to a special elf...
...who brought in these beautiful ornaments...
...to adorn our tree. We'll share more ornament elves tomorrow.
This afternoon all of the grade two students headed over to the school.
We assembled in Mrs. Eaton's class.
Once we had performed the bells we became the audience.
It was a play practice.
Everyone knows their lines.
And...their parts.
We are an attentive audience.
At the back of the room.
Tooch fun.. mu.as always.

Day 67 - Monday, Dec. 11
Catching up with our Christmas tree...
We find some more elves adding to the greenery.
Just a gentle reminder that tomorrow morning is our Grade Two Christmas showcase at 11:00 AM in the learning commons.
Today was dress rehearsal day.
We assembled in the pit of the learning commons.
Following the bells, our class and Mrs. Akkawi's class took our places as the choir.
Mrs. Eaton's and Mrs. Roche's students who were waiting their time to head onto the stage helped to form the audience as well.
Aren't they little angels?
Yes they are!
Action!
The play is underway!
Trees in the background.
Shepherds and kings.
With angels around. We look forward to performing tomorrow!
Back in class we combined with Mrs. Akkawi's group.
We worked on stained glass angels, candles and bells.
The boys are hard at work.
As are the girls.
In different groups around the room.
Working together.
Say cheese!
Hi there!
Some Grade 3 friends.
Looks like everyone is having fun!
Lots of smiles.
Lots of activity.
An aerial shot.
...or two!
"This is fun, Mr. Hamer!"
A special substance in her hand.
Great work, boys!
Bravo! Hi Ms. Valentina!
A young lad visits the room.
To collect pop can tops.
For the wheelchair association.
Look, Mr. Hamer...my hands are changing!
Just a reminder that it's not too late to donate clothing items.
That is our Advent theme for week two.
Lots of nice items to adorn the two Christmas trees out front.
To go along with the canned goods we brought in during week one of Advent.
What a giving school!
Our Snowflake sale is on next week.
If you have some gently used items to donate, feel free to send them in!
Have a great evening! Mr. Hamer OCT
