We are currently working on our dance unit and with the beautiful weather this week we've been able to take some of our classes outside! Students are working together with their groups to create their own dance routines. They are getting very excited to perform their finalized routines next week!
Learning about Residential Schools
We have been using a variety of true stories to learn more about residential schools. Here are a few of the books we have been focusing on over the past few months.
Growth Mindset vs. Fixed Mindset
We have also been learning about the difference between having a fixed mindset and a growth mindset, including how changing our words can change our entire mindset. I have noticed a big difference in the positive self talk happening in our classroom since having these conversations. Many students were surprised to realize that they were previously demonstrating a fixed mindset in some ways and have now completely shifted their own mindsets to make positive changes in how they react to situations. Way to go!!
