Today we finished up our volley unit with some skills testing. I am so proud of the skill development and improvement shown by everyone. My wish is that you leave grade 7 with the confidence to try volleyball again in the future. Maybe in high school, at the community centre, park or beach. Sports are a great way to get exercise, have fin and meet new people. After recess, we had Earthbites where we worked in the garden, learned about immune systems and made healthy tea form rose hip powder, lemon, ginger and honey. What a great healthy drink. The afternoon as spent getting prepared for our inquiry presentations next week. |
