We had some interesting conversations and discussions today for the International Day to stop transphobic  and homophobic bullying.  For some, it better known as the Day of Pink.

 There were some really interesting comments I would like to compile into a video, but that will take me a while to put together and edit.

A small group of Grade 1 students stopped by yesterday to visit and send some bucket filling wishes to our classroom.  I have a photo of them, which I will post, but I want to make sure all of the students in that class have had their media release photos signed before I upload it to the blog.  It was nice to see a group of students, so young, embrace the positive messages of helping others and working towards being happy.

The annual Jump Rope for Heart assembly kicked off yesterday.  Mr. Moye is usually the one in charge of organizing it.  I imagine pledge forms will go home soon.  Here are a few photos from the event:

In Mathematics today, we did some review of Mean, Median, and Mode by using some statistics from some online gamers.  I will post two photos:  one of the actual screen shot and one of the calculations done by Sandro, Kiara, Ariane, and John.

Two EQAO questions, from Grade 6, were handed out for homework and will be reviewed, in detail, tomorrow before Friday's quiz.
