There is a lot on this site about him, the run, and the fundraising.
We also spent some time playing a game called "Tribond". This is where one person gives three clues and the other person needs to guess what those three clues have in common. Example: leash, fur, paws = dog
We used used this game to help review the concept of community from Grade 1. What does a community have and why are those parts important? This work will lay the groundwork for our future work on Canadian Communities. In small groups, we made some mind maps to show the parts of a community. Check out some of the things we came up with below!
To Watch for:
Your child should come home with black folder today. This is a folder to send notes, letters and work back and forth from home to school. This black folder can stay in their backpack but will need to be checked each morning at school and afternoon at home by students to check for anything inside. This should help prevent lost and crumpled papers!
Some of your children will have a Volunteer Form from the office to fill out. Please send back in the folder when it is done.
