"Breakfast Math"

I hope everyone enjoyed BC's first Family Day! It sounds like it was a much appreciated break for everyone.

It was very quiet in the Grade 6 hallway today with only 18 students present due to the boys and girls basketball tournament. In an effort to educate students about Shrove Tuesday and integrate some math from our fractions unit, the students at school participated in a pancake breakfast! With so many students away we thought it would be a great opportunity to learn about something outside of typical curriculum and to encourage community building.

Congratulations to the girls' basketball team on placing 5th in your tournament! It sounds like they had a great day. I'm looking forward to hearing from the boys tomorrow.
