Guess Who?
We had an amazing circle of presentations today. We met everyone from Mary Queen of Scots to Michael Jackson, from Mallory to Pele, from Archimedes to Gurion - from brave to poor, from inventors to adventurers. We met Leah's Great Auntie on Skype from Winnipeg - an amazing woman! Well-done, everyone. The Graphic Novels are an accomplishment as well.
Another important folder of bits & pieces went home today. Your child's journal chronicles the year. Do have a read!

"Absence" by Carol Shieds
We had an interesting warm-up in the Computer Lab. We read a story that was written entirely without one mystery letter. Using the program, PiratePad (EtherPad), students typed the story as it was read out loud. They figured out which letter was absent!
