Google Safety

As we continue to explore and become more involved with our 'mytools2go' accounts it may be helpful to read and discuss some helpful and safe technology tips. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

Getting started with Google

N.E.D. & LET'S TALK SCIENCE

The N.E.D show stopped in on Wednesday afternoon to deliver a positive message along with some fabulous yo-yo tricks. Zachary explained that in order to be a champion you have to never give up on yourself. This earned him a trip to the front and a free set of brain fireworks! 

On Thursday we had the opportunity to participate in a "Let's Talk Science" presentation. Students were in small groups and used Science to conduct a crime scene investigation. In the end, 'shining white Sam' was found guilty of stealing the formula for a top secret cure from a lab somewhere deep in South America. Everyone had a fantastic time with this valuable hands on experience.

Guardians Give Back

As you all know, for our Guardians Give Back campaign we sent out thank you letters and cards to local charities and not for profit organizations. Since then, we have received some positive feedback. The class gets very excited when they see the benefits of their work! I will continue to post pics of the feedback as it comes in.

BE the CHANGE

For Lent our Social Justice Club has organized a spare change drive in hopes of raising funds to help build a school in Kenya. Each classroom is asked to collect spare change for the duration of Lent. The class that collects the most change (the money will be weighed) is eligible for a class ice-cream party! If you would like to help our class by collecting change at work or in your neighbourhood/community, I can send a spare school bank home with your child.
