If you haven’t seen these pictures of the display at the front entrance of the school yet, please enjoy. The writing prompts were “children felt… at residential school” and “children should feel… at school.” This was an amazing school-wide application of the students’ knowledge and feelings about Orange Shirt Day. Thanks to Mrs. S. for organizing this project and to all the teachers and students who participated!
We may not be able to do the book fair like we usually do, but a virtual version is coming your way soon! The Living Books Book Fair will be launched on Grandparents’ Day – stay tuned!
Many of you attended the parent seminar with Paul Davis last week which included the topic of online safety. At HHCS we also teach about this in the classrooms. As part of the Information Literacy class that I teach, I use Common Sense Media to help teach lessons on digital literacy. This helpful website also has many resources for families such as articles about “Parent Concerns”, “What You Need to Know”, “What’s New”, guides to various popular games, apps, and movies, and so on.
