 Today we:

-Acted out social situations and identified whether it is an example of conflict, rude, mean, or bullying. We also discussed the difference between when it is ok to think things and when it is ok to say things. 

-Finished presenting on the remaining provinces and territories. As we were listening to the students presenting other students were summarizing what the land looks like, the climate, and an interesting fact about the province or territory.

Reminders:
