Success from Failure

By -
 I could feel the adrenaline pumping. I was prepared for anything. It was when I started the race that I knew there was something wrong, but thinking about all the training put into this and I knew that I had to continue. I was leading. I could see the finish line, then I fell badly. I felt like I had to give up. Especially hearing the commentator saying things like "Emma Andricks has fallen and Julianna Marie has taken the lead!" Then something made me get back up and finish. I didn't win, but at least I finished the race.

Instant Messaging Guidelines

In IT, we've been working on posters about instant messaging for the Grade fours as they have just started using iPads this year and are starting to experiment with Messages which has started a few situations as they don't really know how it works. Our posters provided information on instant messaging and how to use it correctly. Today the Pheasants came to the IT room with us for us to show them our posters and teach them about smart messaging. These posters taught them about tone, facial expression and how texting could go wrong. They learned a lot about messaging through these posters and hopefully we helped them be more clear with their messaging. Created using Google Drawings.

One day Annie found the time to go shopping and there she was! Sydney was right there in front of her. They both couldn't believe their eyes, but they were overjoyed.

Lazy Saturday

By -
Elsie had enough of waking up early on Saturday mornings to go to gymnastics. This Saturday, she got to be lazy since there was no gymnastics.  She opened her kitchen cupboard  and she saw all the snacks in existence. After her ten minute spastic victory dance, she started grabbing snacks. The items she found were chips and sweet snacks. She placed everything in a row on her table in her room so she could lie down. As she ate and watched TV, she saw a fly but it instantly left the room. Her exact words were "Best lazy Saturday ever!"
