What a great day today...and no heads exploded!! We had lots of 'sic' actors though. See the photos below of some of our final drama activities. We had a great conversation today about integrity, our values, respecting others and thinking of others, going beyond thinking of yourself. It is so great to teach students that care about their environment, classmates and selves. Thank you for being who you are! Gr. 6s and 7s if you want the practice...Use this link to practice measuring angles. What is in a name? The subject came up while reading the novel, The Boy on the Porch. Let’s share the meaning behind our names. POST after asking your parents how they decided on naming you or what your name means?
Also POST a compliment to 3 classmates for your gratitudes this week. Some of you have still missed this direction since Monday. No school on Friday (ProD) Bring raffle tickets by Monday Order forms for vegetables went home

Apparently my name (not English) means that I am basically the bouncer of the nice place me brother builds. That is the story behind me and my brother's name. (He came up to explain the story.) I don't exactly know why my parents chose it, but I think it was because they wanted our names to be a little different from the rest of me big boii family.

The meaning of my name from a website means: The number Eight personality has everything to do with power, wealth and abundance. Somehow, this personality has been blessed on the material plane, but their authoritative and problem-solving traits provide evidence that their good fortunes are not just the luck of the lottery. They are well earned. This is the personality of CEOs and high-ranking military personnel. Eights are intensely active, hard-driving individuals. Success is only meaningful to them after a job well-done. They are remarkable in their ability to see the larger picture right down to the smallest details, and organize a strategy around success. They then have the ability to direct a group around them toward any goal, and realize individual potential to get the most out of their team. The math game was awesome! It was really fun and helpful! My name actually came from a famous actor. Quote of the day: "Musicians want to be the loud voice for so many quiet hearts."~ Billy Joel.

My parents got my first name from thinking what what go strong together with my middle and last name and they found my name and thought it was unique and very strong. My name represents the olive tree which represents fruitfulness dignity and beauty. When an olive branch extends it is a symbol of peace in English and French tradition.

There is no known defined word for my first name (so it says) but what it's sound like is my first name means decendent from Dragons and warrior of demons. My last name means almost in translation "royalty" because my ancestor was the king of Spain.

My parents chose my first name because we are part Romanian and it is a very common name in Romania. My middle name was chosen because it is the same name as my grandmas name.
