6B homework!

Morah Mirit: Read chap 4 on internet and write on a piece of paper, what is the order the events happen on pasuk 10 and 17.
Due Dec. 13!

Mr. G: Exploring multiples side 1. Due Dec. 10; except for Jeremy, who has to do it for tomorrow, because he is going away on Momday!

Mel's poem reminded me of another...

We've been discussing putting ourselves in other people's shoes lately. Often, we spend too much time waiting for our turn to speak, or pre-judging people based on appearances or first impressions or half-truths or rumours. I hope that our rich classroom discussions have helped you start to realize that each member of our grade six family has many important and meaningful things to express.

-Mr. G.

I Stopped Listening Today

Stopped listening today
In her eyes I heard a plea
In his smile, curiousity
In his stance, a longing for more
In her tremble a need to be secure
I Stopped listening today

Stopped talking today
In her hand I felt an open heart
In their stares insecurity
In their looks I felt loved
In her cry I felt gratitude
I stopped talking today

Stopped judging today
In their begging and dreary state I felt kinship
In my smile they returned understanding
In our short time together we felt not alone
I stopped judging today

Six Million Scars draft 5

Into the Heart
Between fields and seas
Hard to imagine
What happened here


Men blessed by heaven
With stories untold
Unable to distinguish
Between the chapters of pain


They lived with
The scars they carried
Despite
The Men with Guns
