An Amazing Time of Storytelling!

The Grade 4's were privileged to host 41 grandparents
and 2 great grandparents today! Each grandparent
completed a "Memory Book" for their grandchild which
contained questions that the class had brainstormed
about what Grade 4 had been like for them when they
had been in school. The storytelling experience was
rich with exchange as the Grade 4's learned things
about their grandparents that they had not known before.

Later in the day, some of the students had pulled these
books from their files to enjoy a second time around.
These "Memory Books" will be sent home in your child's
student file at the end of the year.

How often would we wish that we had the opportunity
once again, to sit with our grandparents to hear
the incredible stories of their lives?

Enjoy your weekend,
Kathe

P.S. Tuesday after school, I would like to meet with
the parents of the Grade 4 boys to discuss camp and
what can be done to prepare your son to have an amazing
experience at camp.
