Save the Turkeys!

Poor turkeys don’t want to be eaten on Thanksgiving, so Division 8 students were given the task of disguising their turkey! Using anything they could find around home, they dressed their turkeys so that they wouldn’t be found and put on the table for Thanksgiving dinner.

The turkeys are now safely hidden in our classroom. *whew!*

Meet the Seniors!

Today is one of my favourite days of the school year when we get to visit the grade 7s in the gym and learn about all of their great accomplishments, hobbies, interests and favourite things. It’s so exciting for me to see my past students so confidently display themselves for the visiting classes.

Way to go grade 7s! So proud of who you’ve become. Division 8 students, what was your favourite thing you saw today on display? Was there a grade 7 that had very similiar hobbies /interests as you!? What did you have in common?
