Learning Intentions: I can work with others to achieve a common goal; I do my share. I can take on roles and responsibilities in a group. I can usually make my ideas work within the constraints of a given form, problem, and materials if I keep playing with them.
For our last day before Spring Break, the grade 7 leadership team hosted a pancake breakfast and PJ Day! We were at the school bright and early at 7 am, setting up for our big breakfast. I got the pleasure of working in the back with the team, helping them with getting the plates ready for serving. When people started to arrive, the pancakes weren't ready as the griddles took awhile to heat up, so we suddenly felt the pressure! As soon as the pancake tray would arrive, we would quickly plate and rush off to our tables. It took us a little bit, but once we got into our routines, all was smooth sailing. I think this was great life experience for our team, and they handled the stress and pressure well... it was a little taste into what a job at a restaurant might feel like! I was so proud of how they were able to still put on their big smiles and worked hard to make sure everyone was happy.... all on an empty stomach to boot, as we didn't get served until the crowd was gone. Then it was a quick clean up before our assembly. After recess. Division 1 and 2 mashed up to do a STEM challenge... who could create a catapult that would fling their alligator the furthest with the given materials? It was great seeing the students activity different parts of their brains and working together to make the best catapult! I hope you all have a fun and relaxing Spring Break, you have worked so hard this term and deserve it! See you in a couple weeks!
