We started the day in the computer lab. Gr6's researched how the government is dealing with First Nation residential school issues. Gr7's researched the causes and effects of specific events from 1715-1850. Then we came back to class, partnered up, and discussed what we did over the holidays. In gym, students participated in basketball relays and played basketball British bulldog.
