Scary stories
This is the book our class will be reading on Halloween. We will turn off the lights. We will shut the blinds and our teacher will get a flash light. Then she'll read the stories. Sometimes she jumps out at people in the class. It is sometimes scary. Sometimes people get scared and have to leave the classroom. Mrs. Wallace is not mean, she just likes to set the mood on Halloween.

Hootie Recess
The whole school gets whats called a hootie recess. We earn it by nobody getting sent to the principal`s office for six days which is a cycle. We get to go outside for 15 minutes at the end of the day before the bell rings.The school gets to have fun and chill with our peeps. Its kind of like an extra recess at the end of the day. Its a way to reward us children to be good, nice, and well behaved toward one another!

Our Sunflowers Have Bloomed
These are our finished sunflowers, inspired by Vincent Van Gogh. It was a lot of hard work, but now that they are finished they look wonderful! The seeds were the hardest part, as we had to dab them on with Q-tips.

Star Awards
Every month at Carleton School we have a star award assembly and we find out who the star students are. Every one gets to be a star throughout the school year. To become a star student you have to behave and have fun. Not every one gets to be a star student if they do not behave.

What's All The Hoot About?
This is the Carleton school mascot. His name is Carl the owl. He is down in the lobby by the gym where all the boys and girls get their exercise. He used to be called Hootie then we changed it Carl because it is the first 4 letters in Carleton. Posted by Jesse, Sarah, Sara, and Zachery

Stop Bullying
This is our Carleton School poster. It hangs in the hallway. We rely on it to stop bullying. Every student in the school traced their hand and signed it on anti-bullying day. This also lets people who enter Carleton School know that we don't put up with bullying.

In art class we made art inspired by artist Piet Mondrian. We used thick lines and thin lines and simple colours such as red, blue, yellow and black. Mondrian used paint but we used construction paper to create our art. Posted by: Spencer, Quintin, Olivia, and Matthew.

Welcome to our class blog! Throughout the year we will be updating our blog regularly with information about what we are doing in class as well as information about what is going on in our school. Please check-in often. :)
Last week we learned a bit about artist Vincent Van Gogh and we created sunflower art inspired by him. Students used paint and Q-tips to create sunflowers. So much fun!
