Read aloud:

I couldn't decide which story I wanted to share with you. So I decided to share both stories. The one above is my very favourite and the link below will take you a short animated feature about a hockey sweater (my second favourite book). I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Task 1

The first school wide activity:

Invitation to Create a Time Capsule Memory

We are going to create a digital time capsule of memories from students of Eric Harvie School.

We will also share your work with the Glenbow Museum – they are also collecting memories from Calgarians. Check out their website at https://glenbow.org/programs/dear-glenbow/

What to do:

Create a ‘before the pandemic’/’after the pandemic’ drawing, story, video clip, photo essay or whatever creative way helps you describe something in your life that is different now that you are living through a pandemic than it was before.

For example: how you play, school, family time, team sports, eating dinner, seeing your friends or grandparents, going on family walks, etc.

When you are finished with your creation, take a photo or upload to the google doc folder on your Pod Blog. We will retrieve it from there and add it to the Time Capsule.

Enjoy! We look forward to sharing your one-page or one-minute memories!

Now watch the video!
