 Four days of grade seven bliss!


Please remember to bring warm clothes as we move forward.  Regardless of the weather, with the smoke subsiding, we will have all of our windows open during the day.  


Please bring something to sit on outside tomorrow, such as. towel or a blanket.  We will be doing some sitting and reflecting outside.

Good Morning Division 1! Shape of the Day 8:30 - 8:50am – Check in with yourself.  Ask yourself what number you are?  Consider why?  Create a sleep record that you will fill in Monday to Friday until we are out of this “new normal”.  Record what time you went to bed last night (actually fell asleep) and the quality of your sleep (sound/woke up once or twice/tossed and turned) and what time you woke up this morning.  Record any dreams you recall.  Consider if they have any significance to you. 8:50 – 9:00am – Stretch break.  Listen to one or two of your favourite songs and move around. 9:00 – 10:15am – Sign up for Khan Academy.
