Monday, March 2

Our residency with Evergreen Theatre started today.  We had an early music time as we had an assembly as a whole school to learn more about the week.  We had our first session with Aaron.  We did a quick warm-up game to help him get to know us and our names.  From there, we brainstormed ideas for our portion of the show.  It was great to see everyone contributing their ideas.

We reviewed the Provincial Achievement Test (PAT) functional writing rubric.  This is what will be used to mark our newspapers when we write our first PAT in May.  The other tests will be in June.  We did a practice news article using given information, just like we will have when we write in May.   

Our day finished with beginning to paint our ODS name tags.  One side contains our name, and the other side has the nature names that we have chosen.

A letter with more information about ODS is coming home today.  Please read this carefully as it contains information about luggage drop off at the school on Monday as well as information about medication.
