Titanic Tribute

In honour of the 100th anniversary of the fatal sinking of the Titanic, we spent all day immersed in learning about this historical tragedy.  We looked at a Titanic timeline with an interactive Smart board lesson, we had a read aloud of one of the survivor's tales, we watched a video on how the Titanic sank, we read a French book and summarized the important points, and last but not least, we did lots and lots of Titanic math (my favourite)!  I hoped you enjoyed learning as much about the Titanic as I did!!!

Facing your fears

Well, you all know how I feel about public speaking...  So when I was offered the chance to present in front of other teachers at a conference, I wasn't exactly thrilled.  However, everyday day, I encourage you to take risks in our classroom (which you all do so well!), so I felt that I should lead by example and face my fears.  While it did not go exactly as planned, I was able to get through it and feel confident that I would do a much better job the next time (especially if my husband isn't around ;).  Facing your fears may seem scary, but in the end, it is nothing short of AWESOME!
