Hi parents,
We had another good day today - it's shaping up to be a pretty good week in fact!
We met up with our buddy class and did an Orange Shirt Day art project. We read the book "Trudy's Rock Story", which is an indigenous story about a girl who uses a rock to help her express her emotions and solve conflicts. The students painted their own rocks orange. We watched a video about reconciliation and brainstormed idea for what we could write on our rocks, once they are dry.
In math, we played a game called "Place Value Battle Royale" in which students competed at their tables to create the biggest numbers, by rolling dice. It's basically the same as the Beat the Teacher game we played earlier, but this time the numbers went into the millions.
In the afternoon, we had music, gym, and library. Easy afternoon for me, fun for the class.
Tomorrow is Orange Shirt Day. Wearing an orange shirt is encouraged - however, if you don't have one, a good alternative is just wearing a shirt that has sentimental value, just like the orange one that was so special to Phyllis Webstad.
Have a wonderful night,
Zac
PS: Don't forget to send back the pink homework sheet!
