I've got to say it...it was an excellent week in Division 8! I was really impressed with the level of collaboration by the students with each other, and their receptiveness to adapting to a new teacher, my expectations and our classroom rules. Today was a nice way to cap off our week. In the morning the students headed off to Music with Mr. Barkman, before returning to discuss Terry Fox's legacy, how he still inspires people across Canada and the World. (See the video below) The students also created word webs about what it means to be "Inspirational." The students also had their first Spelling Quiz today, and had time to work on their "Me!" posters. After lunch the students had the chance to read, write, draw, play cooperative games or do coding as part of our Fun Friday. At 1:30pm the class headed down the join the rest of the Intermediate grades for a Welcome Assembly, and to discuss Terry Fox, ahead of our Terry Fox Run.
