Surely You Have Heard of Maria Aragon!

Last Wednesday, one week ago, 10 year old Maria Aragon (she already has a wikipedia page!! She's 10!) from Isaac Brock School in Winnipeg posted yet another video of herself singing on youtube. Her video got to Lady Gaga (whose song she sang), who in turn tweeted about Maria and shared the link to her video with her 6.8 million followers! What an amazing story! Maria's video had over 11 million hits as of Wednesday - just one week later!

Last Thursday she made an appearance on Hot 103 where she also spoke to Lady Gaga. The next day (Friday) she was being flown to Toronto for multiple appearances and yesterday, she appeared on ELLEN!! She even sang the Lady Gaga song, on tv! Wow! This Thursday she has an appearance on Good Morning America. What's next? Maria has been asked by Lady Gaga to perform with her at her concert in Toronto at the Air Canada Centre next month! A LADY GAGA CONCERT! Imagine, one week ago she was sitting in her grade 5 desk at school and now she is on national television and singing at a sold out concert!

There are stories about Maria all over the place including The Winnipeg Free Press. You can follow and support the success of this young and talented Winnipeg girl just about anywhere! I am getting chills just writing this post, what a great story. Look at what you can do if you follow your passions and work hard at your dreams! No matter how old you are. What are your dreams?
P.S. - there is a video clip inserted below of Maria on Ellen. I could see it at home but I can't see it at school. If you can't see it either, follow the link above "singing on youtube" to find the video.
P.P.S. - Yippeee! I found a link that has the video clip AND we can see it at school!

What a Busy Week!

This week was action packed! we started with Valentine's Day. We had a lovely day crafting about love, writing about love and snacking on lovely snacks!

Tuesday was the 100th day of school! We did all things 100 all day. Everyone made a crown with 100 things, 100 glasses and wrote entries for class books. Then there were centres to choose from like "guess which jar has 100", "make handprints until there are 100 fingers", "flip a coin 100 times to see if it will be heads or tails more", "make a tower using 100 Digi Blocks", and 96 others! (No, not really. But there were lots to choose from!) We each brought a collection of 100 things and shared our collections. Finally, we made a live 100!

100 gumballs? Mr. Scarcello helped decorate this, thanks!

100 tallies!

As you may have read in our previous posts from this week, we also had a lot of Royal Readers! They have done such a fabulous job of playing the "royal" role. Thanks for volunteering!

Finally, today was our Read-a-thon and Read With Your Stuffy Day! Phewf! Thank goodness it is a long weekend!

Prezi

Today we took our Big Buddies to the computer lab for an AWESOME project! We used our lists of things we love to make a Prezi. Our Big Buddies have been working on projects using Prezi so they were our local experts and taught us how to use it. You can check it out and create your own at Prezi. Here is one that was created by Alyssa and her Big Buddies. Click on the arrows at the bottom of the Prezi to watch it. Or, click on "more" and select "autoplay". Thanks for your help Big Buddies!

We Heart...

Yesterday, on yet another day of indoor recess, we found inspiration on Mrs. Malkoske's blog to use our projector to take photos of our shadows. We have been talking about things we like and love this month, hopefully books are on everyone's lists, so we spun the projector shadows idea to portray hearts :). We have posted all our shadow photos to our Shutterfly Album for our families to see. Here is a collage of some photos using Photovisi.

Our Groundhog Day Findings

I saw my shadow.I think I saw my shadow because it was sunny out.I think that means that the groundhog saw his shadow to.That means that theres six more weeks of winter.Madison

I saw my shadow.I saw my shadow because the sun  was out.When the groundhog sees his shadow it means that ther are six more weeks of winter. it's cool that we have six more weeks of winter.Jayden.

It's Groundhog Day!

Happy Groundhog Day...or is it? The students in our class were asked to listen to the radio or news this morning to find out if the local groundhog, Manitoba Merv, saw his shadow. Will this frigid winter carry on for another 6 weeks? We will post our findings shortly.

For now, check out this video, "Can Groundhogs Really Predict Spring?"
Here is another link to the latest news on our furry forecasters! No shadows for Wiarton Willie, Shubenacadie Sam: both predict early spring
