Whew! What an end to a week! Our hectic schedule continued today, with our first visit from Harmony Parent, a singer/songwriter who is working with our class to write a song about the Residential School experience. We've completed the first two verses already, and already we get chills (and Mrs. Waters has tears!) We can't wait to see how it turns out, and we will share it with the world!
June 11th is the Day of Reconciliation, and the day when our tiles will be revealed at the Canadian Museum for Human Rights. We will meet with Harmony on Monday to keep working!
Today our class, along with our K.A.R.E. team, held a bake sale at both morning and afternoon recess to support our drive for Kickballs for Kids! We had a lot of generous bakers helping us out, and we did very well! Every little bit helps!

| #book Our current read-aloud is 'The Underneath' by Kathi Appelt! Highly recommended! |
We listened to a presentation by some grade 8 students at Golden Gate Middle School about threat assessment. We learned what a threat is, and how to deal with it. The main message was to make sure you tell an adult that you trust!

Finally, we wouldn't be very good kids if we didn't send a big 'Happy Mother's Day' message to all the moms out there! Enjoy this video from Kid President! We love you Moms!
