Ski trips!!

Our next extra-curricular activity is skiing/snowboarding at Glen Eden Ski Resort. The dates of the trip are January 22, February 19 and March 4. We will be leaving at 7:00 AM and returning by 4:00 PM at the latest. All rentals are included, however students are more than welcome to bring their own. Please do not order hot lunch for these days as we will be eating lunch at the ski hill – students are welcome to bring money to purchase food and drink items. Students must ensure they are dressed in appropriate ski gear; warm socks, long johns with comfy clothes, snow pants, warm mitts, a face protector and a ski jacket. Please note that if students chose skiing, they will ski all three times. If students pick snowboarding, they will snowboard all three times. All students will have to pass each level before they are granted permission to ski on the big hill, no matter what their experience. Permission forms andwaivers are due back no later than Monday, December 16. Please thoroughly complete all forms before returning.

We began the day practicing for Christmas concert in music class.

Then we wrote a math pre-assessment for our upcoming math unit on Data Management. 

Next, we continued to reflect on the first term by identifying and selecting an activity/skill we worked  hardest on, our best work, and an activity/skill we would like to improve on and placing them in our IB binders.

Then we worked on our Haida art. 

After first recess and lunch we had French.
