 Today we:

-Read the book "All are Welcome" and brainstormed what we should do and not do to make people feel safe, welcome, respected, loved, energized, confident, calm at school.

-Had our first music class and read the book "The Word Collector". We collected words connected to our past music experiences. We played the game "Beat Master" and practiced keeping the beat, following the movements of the leader, and had lots of fun!

-Learned about Shadow, our classroom rabbit. We talked about how to interact with her, what she needs to live, and what to expect when she joins us in the classroom next week.

-Played capture the flag with the other grade 5 classes in the field. We had our first Physical Education class and played line tag.
