Love will keep us Together

This week for Valentines we have been dancing to the song "Love will keep us together" by Captain and Tenille. The students know they are a band from the 1970's and this was a number 1 hit for them. I promised the kids I would put this video up so they could listen to the song at home and dance in their living room with their families if they wanted!! So get dancing this Valentines weekend!!

Annie Junior

Linden Meadows Grade 5-8 students have been bustling with excitement about this years musical! This year we have chosen to do "Annie Junior" in April and are very excited about all the amazing students who auditioned last week. Everyone who auditioned got a part and practices are already underway! Check the musical bulletin board for all practice times! Stay tuned for more specific information!

Grade 2's Trip to the WSO

The Grade 2 students are all very excited to go to see the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra today! We have been listening to the music that will be played and learning about the composers who wrote the music. We have really had a lot of fun learning about the instruments of the orchestra too! We were so lucky to have Mrs. Wright, a parent from our school come and show us her oboe and English horn, two instruments that we wanted to learn more about. The best part is we are going to look for her on stage because she will be playing in the oboe section today!! Very exciting! We are dressed in our best and ready to represent our school at todays concert.

Enjoy!

Kind and Caring

Linden Meadows School is a place where we value "Caring People" and we had made it our goal this year to highlight this. At school this week we made a point of making sure every student knows what a bully is and what to do when they encounter one. In addition to this we talked about our differences and what makes us unique. This important because if we learn to celebrate differences then we will see more kind and caring people. In music class we have read stories, listened to music and created a bulleting board through discussions about what makes us unique. The picture is our bulletin board and every student was able to put their name on a music note and state something about them that they are proud of or something they think is different about them. The result was fabulous! "Each individual is like a single note, together we make a masterpiece!"

Here is a link to our animoto of the brilliant work done around our school! Thanks Mr. Alcock! http://animoto.com/play/choqinSV7j3bFULGczWyXw
