You can expect to find pictures and descriptions of important learning and events from our week, important upcoming dates, and plans for our week ahead.  Today was our first try at writing the blog together, and students learned to delegate roles, listen to ideas, and collaborate with new peers to achieve their common learning goal: blog writing! A few important things to note for our week ahead.  Monday, students will begin their 'All About Me' presentations.  They have been given time in class to work on them but will likely need time at home to finish and practice. As well, Friday, September 15 is the Pancake Breakfast starting at 7:30 - 8:00!    Important Dates:  Sept 1...
