That's the way the cookie tumbles...



Our class took part in the O.R.E.O. (Our Really Exciting Online) project hosted by Jennifer Wagner from jenuinetech.com. This year's project invited students from all over the world to stack Oreo cookies as high as he or she can and then average the result to achieve a final class result. Students were not allowed to use anything to stabilize or adjust the cookies as they were stacked. The students had a great afternoon predicting, stacking, counting , tallying, and yes finally getting to eat the Oreo cookies. A big thank you to Eric, Desi, Tiara, Lane, Delaney, and Karlynne, our Grade Four and Grade Five Helpers. It will be interesting to see how Taylor 2B Top Dogs stacked up against the rest of the world.

Fire Safety Week...


This week was fire prevention week. We were lucky enough to have Fire Chief Mr. Denny LeBlanc come to our classroom and discuss Fire Safety with the students. He also gave the students some very informative information and activities to do at home with parents. Discuss these with your child and be prepared in case of an emergency.
