Short Stories
In ELA we have started a new unit called short stories. In this unit we are reading and discussing short stories. We have read two so far, one which you may have heard of, The Hockey Sweater, and another called The Lady In The Cave. For each story we made a prediction about what we thought the story was about. Then we looked at the pictures and we discussed what we saw and asked questions about the pictures. We do writing assignments to test comprehension.

The Hockey Sweater
Did you know that the story "The Hockey Sweater" is so famous that part of it used to be on the Canadian 5 dollar bill? It was originally wrote in French by Roch Carrier, but was translated into English too. The story is about a young boy who is a big fan of the Montreal Canadiens, but receives a Toronto Maple Leafs sweater and isn't treated fairly because of it.

Cooking Enrichment
A few weeks ago in cooking enrichment we made ham and egg cups for "breakfast". This is the recipe:
1 slice of deli ham per cup
1 egg per cup
As much cheese as you'd like
Cooking spray
Muffin tin
Spray cooking spray into the egg cups you are going to use. Put a slice of ham in each cup. Crack an egg into each cup. Cook in the oven until the eggs are as soft or hard as you like. Put cheese on top and put back in oven until melted.
