Busy Day at School


Yesterday, was a busy day at school.  The BIGS participated in the Terry Fox Run at school.
 Terrance Stanley "Terry" Fox (July 28, 1958 – June 28, 1981) was a Canadian athlete, humanitarian, and cancer research activist. In 1980, with one leg having been amputated, he embarked on a cross-Canada run to raise money and awareness for cancer research. Although the spread of his cancer eventually forced him to end his quest after 143 days and 5,373 kilometres (3,339 mi), and ultimately cost him his life, his efforts resulted in a lasting, worldwide legacy. The annual Terry Fox Run, first held in 1981, has grown to involve millions of participants in over 60 countries and is now the world's largest one-day fundraiser for cancer research.

"What did Terry Fox say?!?!?!!?....Run, Run, Run,......." By Kaylee

 Hannah thought it was great that they let Grade 3-5 run through the whole school.
 While I was waiting with Macy for her group to start we spotted Hannah on the field.


 After warming up, the preschoolers started running.  Macy ran around the playground/field 10 times.
 After a quick popsicle break, I did a "cooking" lesson with Macy's class.
 We read 5 Silly Turkeys and made fruit turkeys.  A banana for the body and other fruits for feathers.
During the flag parade a few weeks ago, I only got pictures of Kaylee.  For this event, I didn't get any of her.  While her group was running, I was in the Studio for the Christmas Bazaar the school was hosting.  
It was a busy day of running, cooking and selling.

Life is Good!
