Terry Fox Run + It's a Girl!



Today was a very exciting day in Room 2. We started our morning with a story and then went to read with our big buddies. After that we got ready for the Terry Fox Run by having a conversation about Terry Fox and the reason that we run. Then we got our stickers ready for the run.

Before recess Bella from Grade 6 came to visit us with a very special surprise. Bella knew that Ms. Boyer had not told the class if the baby is going to be a boy or a girl so Bella made a special cake to reveal the surprise! The cake had plain white icing but when we cut open the cake it was pink inside! Surprise! It's a girl! After the big surprise we all got to eat a piece of the cake. It was delicious. Thank you Bella!

At 10:30 we all went to the gym for a special Terry Fox Assembly. The grade 5-6 students told us a bit about Terry's story and then lead some warm up exercises. Then it was time for the run. Our class did an amazing job and ran a total of 138 laps! 

Have a great long weekend and Happy Thanksgiving!
FYI we are bringing home an orange fun lunch form today.
