RIGHT BRAIN INITIATIVE -DRAMA

With: Ashlyn and Cadence
On week 10-29 to 11-1 Mr.wallaces class the class watched a video about the calming way to breath.The guy in the video sort of looked like Mr. Wallace he said that you breath threw your diaphragm. When you breath threw your diaphragm you should be able to feel your breath when your hand is on your stomach. It is important to breath like this so you can end your time in red zone and go back to green.

RIGHT BRAIN INITIATIVE – DRAMA

By:Eva and Kaleena

This week in  Mr.Wallace’s class, room 11. The class  learned about Acts of wonder. They have a teacher named Ms.flin. She has brown hair, brown eyes. Mr.Wallace’s class learned a new game called Zip Zap Zop. What they was slip their hands and clapped. They put their foot out and made eye contact with the first person they saw. Then it just went on and on and on. After that they played a game called change three things and you have to guess.What you do is one person examens the other person and you turn around.

Then well the other person is turned around we would change something then you turn around. That is Mr.Wallace’s class learned.

by : Lilly Miller

This week (10.29-11.1.18) in Mr.Wallace’s class, they have been learning about cartography vocabulary. Some of the words they have learned over the week are: proportion, precise, longitude and latitude. They have been pretty good about not losing the papers but some of the students have lost them. The students who have lost their papers have gotten a second chance to look or get a new one. The pupils have been given a privilege to draw pictures for examples on the vocabulary paper, so far they have not lost this privilege. They have been focused and intrigued about cartography.

ART EXPRESSION

By: Hayden, Ava, Raven

This week in Mr. Wallace’s class, room 11 . There class had art expression, art expression is pretty self explanatory people share their art with their class. It could be something that they
drew or something that someone else made for them and they just want to share their art work to the whole class. This week Amira and Jack, Chase and Henry and Daniel.

First, henry and Daniel shared some drawings that they made.
The first picture they showed was a picture of “rage art” and second the showed a rainbow checkerboard picture. Third they showed a picture of a rainbow worm that was saying “yeet” which appeared to say “yeat”.
Lastly they showed a picture of Daniel jumping off a huge diving board.
Jack went next. He made a slide show about different types of cats, jack had lots of cats like siamese cats, and a scottish fold cats witch are super cute and have small folded ears just like their name.

Then Amira did a really nice part of goosebumps that looked like it took a long time. People loved how she used all of the good details from the best parts of all of the goosebump stories.
Then chase had his dinosaur picture that people say that he should colour in but it still looks very good.

RECESS

By Jack and Wyatt G

Last recess, mrs Peterson’s class Thursday (room 11), played last man standing at about 1:00 pm. Wyatt and Ethan ran to the worm and got on it. After that Cadence and Ashlyn came then her other friends came we started pushing each other off. Jack walked by and said “I guess I will play to” so he got on. All he was doing is sitting there holding on so tight that Wyatt and Ethan could not get him off. But when Wyatt got Ethan and the girls off it was just Wyatt and Jack. It was so hard but Wyatt pushed and push and Jack fell off. Wyatt started screaming “I WON!” then Wyatt fell down on the grass. Then we heard mrs Peterson say ‘it’s time to go” so Wyatt got up still saying “I WON”. Wyatt left with a headache.
