Earlier this week, our Grade 4 students in Ms. Fitzharris’ class and Mrs. Walker’s class, met our Grade 10 international students for the first time. Over the course of the year, the students are going to make videos together featuring our international students! For this first session, the kids had fun taking turns while jointly drawing a picture and figuring out what it was in order to create a title…without using words! There were some confused looks early on but, in the end, all the kids were smiling and getting to know each other. It was a great ice-breaker activity that our teachers learned while attending recent training for the Khan Academy.
Jane Kaserman, our English Language Learner teacher, was the mastermind behind this great collaboration between students. We can’t wait to see what they create!
