After morning work, we had PE. In phys. ed. we played curling and practiced playing a game against other teams to improve our skills. - Aiden & Devon Next, we had a snack and listened to Ms. Parent read from The Hobbit. In the book today, the dwarves were singing songs about their upcoming travels. Beorn also warned the dwarves, Bilbo and Gandalf not to go out until after the sun came up. - Kallie, Maryn, Bridget Then we watched a short video made by an elementary school in the US about bullying. It talked about not being alone if you are being bullied. We talked about being kind and how acts of kindness can have a huge impact on others. We shared ways to be kind and are making a small projects that shares some of those ways.

We saw the grade 5/6s perform a flashmob dance and watched a video about how pink shirt day started. Ask me about it! Finally, we worked on our kindness projects that we discussed in the morning. Have a great night everyone! Remember to listen to the fight song and think about: what part of the song is meaningful to me and what is the one cause that I would fight for. Happy Birthday Austin!!
