Take a peek at some Christmas Wind celebrations across the country.
A Christmas Wind Celebration in Lennoxville, QC on Apr 4, 2016
The Christmas Wind class in Lennoxville, QC, led by Grade 1-2 teacher Jennifer Luce, invited the parents to a wonderful celebration of the students’ inspired artwork on Monday, April 4, 2016. All 19 students came with at least two parents each so there were about 65 people in all. Everyone absolutely adored the video of the students’ drawings and, after the screening, the students showed their trading cards, the map of the schools participating, the pen pal letters from the other schools across the country, and more. In this particular Christmas Wind class, the Grade 1-2’s were assisted by 6 of teacher Karen Christiansen’s Grade 5 students who took pictures of the drawings each week so they could be sent to me for “film making”. Jennifer sent me some pictures to share of this great event which I’ve compiled below. Enjoy!

There’s Christmas Wind in the Halls of Belfast Consolidated, PEI
The Christmas Wind class in Pinette, PEI, led by Grade 1-2 teacher Trudy White, is showcasing student Christmas Wind artwork in the hallways of the school. I asked Trudy to send me some pictures to share which I’ve compiled in a collage below (click image to the right or here to enlarge). The PEI class is also now displaying their letters and trading cards from the other Christmas Wind schools on the wall next to the bulletin board (pictures to come) so that other students and teachers at Belfast Consolidated School can enjoy them, too.
