Working with our Buddies

On Monday afternoon, we worked with our Grade 5/6 buddies. We talked about the importance and reasons that we acknowledge the land that we live on. When we gather natural materials we need to remember to say "thank you" for giving me this living thing.

Mrs. Kousouris took a class with a professor that taught her that Wy'zun (wise one) exists in nature. She wanted to bring her learning to us so that we can understand that there is a strong connection between nature and other living beings.

We began our work with designing our house for our Wy'zun. First we sketched our houses with our Big buddies and then we labelled the parts of our houses.
