First Day of School

Today was a great day focused on building community and getting to know each other.  We had a lot of fun and laughed a lot.  We started off the day by sitting in a circle and telling each other a little bit of what we did over the summer break.  After that we had a ball of yarn and when it was passed to us we shared something about ourselves that we wanted the class to know about.  When we finished we each had a piece of string that showed how we were all connected.  Then we worked together in groups to put together a puzzle. 
During the afternoon we had our very first school assembly, M Gomes talked about expectations that he has for us during assemblies and we learned a new way to clap to show our support and appreciation of others.  We were also introduced to all of the new staff in the building and of course our new vice principal Mme Romeo.  After, we went back to our room and some of us shared our "All About me" bags.  






We ended the day with Phys Ed.  It was a great day, we were  all very tired and excited that it was the weekend so that we could recharge for the upcoming week ahead.

LES CENTRES D'AUTOCHTONES

This week we got to work in centre's that focused on various Indigenous aspects of  life.  Students got to explore Indigenous art, various dwellings,  and their favorit was the design and creation of "canoes" that they got to test in water.  It was a great learning experience for all.

Beyond the Laughing Sky Book Trailers.

We recently read the book Beyond the Laughing Sky written by Michelle Cuevas.  This was a great read and the students and I really enjoyed it.  It speaks to both acceptance and believing, which I feel is such an important part of our world.  Below are book trailers that my students created.  ENJOY!
