Terry Fox Run:
Students showed a lot of determination, focus, perseverance, grit, athleticism when running around the pond for our run! We looked at some pictures from the non-fiction book called, Terry using the doc cam on the Smartboard. Thanks to our students for 'giving it their all' when running and for the many donations! Please stay tuned for a school total!

The class (sadly, a few friends were under the weather).
Our puff ball challenge seems to be working! We have gotten so many of these 'warm fuzzies' for working together to make our classroom a space where we can learn at our best! We are motivated to 'fill the bucket' by showing grade 4 expected behaviours and taking responsibility for our learning. Together, we have a goal to achieve 30 minutes extra time using computers for Raz Kids, and other learning sites.

Today, I read: When I was Eight, by Christy Jordan-Fenton and Margaret Pokiak-Fenton. It is a picture book story about residential schools. We discussed a start of Canada's history and we are doing some beginning learning about Reconciliation.
Tomorrow, Friday, September 27th we hope to be hand sewing using a blanket stitch! We have our student teacher, Ms. Treena and a few volunteers to help us.
Remember Monday, September 30th is Orange Shirt Day. If you have an ORANGE SHIRT, please wear it!
