Happy New Year!
Division 10 has started 2021 with calm, peaceful, inspirational goals. The book, I Wish You More, by Amy Krouse Rosenthal, was shared by Ms. Hossack. We have continued with that theme, opening our eyes, finding what touches our heart and makes us think more deeply. The students have created 4 goals for Term 2 based on a goal for academics, one for calm, one for friendship and one for thinking. They have put their goals onto a kite template with the thought of “I wish you more ups than downs!”
Their goals for calm have been inspired by some of the meaningful movements they have done during yoga time in the gym. Click the link below to see their yoga stretches and poses.
One of the pieces of the poem, A Place Inside of Me, connected to our mindful moments. It also supported our learning of Black Shirt Day commemorating the ongoing struggle for civil and human rights fought by Black and racialized Canadians.
We shared hope today with our first Black Shirt Day experience. We will continue to be open to the possibilities! Thanks to Maiia for taking the photo. Happy New Year!
