About Us
There are 13 students in grades 2 and 3 in our class. Our school only has 3 classrooms. We live on a small island in British Columbia, Canada.
We love school and are excited about learning new things! We think it is amazing that other people around the world are looking at our blog. We hope that we can make new friends through our blog and share with everyone all the exciting things we are doing at school.
Please leave us a comment!

Here is a video tour of our school that we made to share with our Quad Blogging buddies:
Here is the Voicethread we made last year for the Elementary Voicethread Wiki . The students took pictures of our school and recorded messages about them. Take a peek inside our school…

Dear Mrs. Watson’s class,
We think the video about your school is amazing. Our school also has an outdoor playground. Our school doesn’t have a gym. Our school also has many more classes. What other activities do you have there? Do you enjoy school?
Your new buddies,
Arielle and Melissa from Mrs. Ranney’s class
Dear Arielle and Melissa,
Thank you for the wonderful comment. I am happy that you liked the video about our school. Is your playground big or small? I guessed that you would have gym outside because it is so beautiful where you live. You’re lucky pretty much all we get is clouds and rain. Ya we are very small school. We love to play in the forest, in the court, we have three slides, one by the forest, one on the top of a hill, and on attached to the playground we also love to play on the playground, and last but not least we love the field. To my class school is like a peace of Heaven.
Best Wishes

Dear Mrs. Waston’s Class,
We have watched your video, and we have found many similarities and differences. For example, you have three classrooms in your school total, and we have four in our grade. I think you have a big play area for a small school. It is really cool that you have a forest outside your school. We don’t have a gym in our school, but we do have P.E. (Physical Education). For P. E. I especially like basketball and playing games on the grass. Can you tell me more about your school?
Your Quad blogging Buddies,

Dear Jace & Andrew,

Dear Mrs. Watson’s Class,
We loved your video about your school. We are both 3rd grade classes. We both have outdoor playgrounds. You have P.E every day, we don’t. We have P.E once a week. You have hallways inside, we don’t. Your school has a forest next to it , we don’t have one. Do you like having a forest next to your school? Do you like having a gym in your school?
Sincerely,
Arielle, Grace, and Maya from Mrs. Ranney’s class
Dear Grace, Arielle, and Maya,
That is not fair, you only have P.E once a week. Yes we like both the Gym and forest.
Best Wishes,

Dear Mrs Watson’s Class,
You have an amazing school!
Here are some similarities and differences:
You have a gym, and we don’t have a gym. You have a forest, and we don’t. You have less people in your class, and we have more. You have indoor halls, and we have outdoor halls. We have P.E. twice a week, and you have it everyday. Lucky!
You have a outdoor playground like us. You have pooping birds and we do too. (only sometimes…LOL)
Did you learn cursive? Did you learn geometry?
Sincerely,
Hayley and Eve from Mrs. Ranney’s Class
Dear Mrs. Watson’s class,
Your school is unbelievable.
We liked looking at your forest.
You are lucky you have one, and we don’t have one.
It sounds fun to have forest animals in your forest.
We are learning about adverbs and money.
What sports do you like?
What books do you like to read?
What games do you like to play on the field?

Dear Mrs. Watson’s class,
We really like your school! We have a playground too. You have a forest, and we have a blacktop. Do you have a cafeteria? What are you learning? Do you have homework on Friday? We hope you answer our questions.
Best wishes,
Nate and Michael from Mrs. Ranney’s Class
Dear Mrs. Watson and class,
Your school is very unique and amazing. We have some similarities with your school and our school, We both have a library, a big playground, and a variety of people in our school. We also have differences at our school as well, like we don’t have a forest next to our playground, and we don’t have a gym. We have outdoor halls, but you have indoor halls.We have 587 children in our whole school. Have you done biography subjects yet? Have you done geometry yet? Do you have a lot of homework?
Your new blogging buddies,
Vanessa and Melissa from Mrs. Ranney’s Class
Dear Mrs Watson’s class,
We go to the library on Wednesday too. Some of my favorite books are: Charlie Bone, Cam Jansen, and biographies.
Talk to you soon,

Mrs. Watson,
I am a grade three teacher in the Vancouver lower mainland and we also have our own class blog. I’ve been reading about your Tale Trail project. I think this is something my students would really like to get involved in. How did you connect with the other teachers/classes for this project? Is there other Tale Trail stories taking place and if so how do I go about contacting these teachers and participating in the program?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. If you are interested here is the link to our class blog.

Dear Mr. Preshaw,
Thank you very much for stopping by our blog and for leaving us a comment. It is always nice to meet other classes who enjoy blogging like we do.
We have been connected to the other teachers in the Tale Trail for quite some time. We have enjoyed being a part of several different collaborative projects with these classes. Some we met through our blog and others we met through connections on Twitter.
Mr. Avery organized this particular project. I am not aware of any other Tale Trails, but you could certainly give it a try with other classes. Are you on twitter? It is a fantastic place to connect with other educators from all over the world. You could also try the list of class blogs on the Edublogs site.
Let us know if we can help at all,
Mrs. W and the 2/3s
