Friday Fun!

This morning we had a fabulous opportunity to watch the grade nine drama students present their version of events from Peter Pan. They scripted ideas on how Hook and Pan came to be enemies. The children adored their humorous and animated performance.


Then we burnt some energy off in PE. It is always great to get active!


In class it has been a hive of activity as groups began trying to solve a simple problem like; ringing a bell, popping a balloon, lifting a cup of water, or pushing a ball into a hole by inventing a Rube Goldberg machine. They tested, reflected, made adaptations and tested again. Plenty of perseverance training today! Here's Mimi and Hana's example.


We have had to do a little classroom redecorating in order to have invention spaces for our creative classmates. We also have lovely new carpet throughout Elementary so the place looks fabulous!
