 Hello 3C Families, 

Today we:

• Started our morning by working on our news paper articles. 
• Talked about National Indigenous Peoples Day.
• Learned about how the Turtle is used in Indigenous calendars and looked at the 13 moons that go with the months of the year. Ask me to tell you what moon I was born in and what I think it could mean! 

• Watched an oral story telling called "The Mouse and The Buffalo Skeleton". Ask me to tell you about the lesson of this story!
• Did a Métis inspired art. 

• Made postcards from Tunisia in social studies.  
• Played Indigenous games in P.E.
