Break dancing --by Nat, Med, & Al

This afternoon the Beat Boys came to Churchill school for a special presentation. They showed us dances from the 70’s , 80’s , and the 90’s. They represented the different dance moves , clothing , and music from each decade. They also did a break dancing battle. At the end they called up six students and two teachers to the stage. They taught them some dance moves and even let them do their own freestyle dance.

Swimming --by the Pony Girls

This week our class went swimming at Dovercourt for the swim to survive program.
First, we split up into six small groups. We rotated when we were finished each group. We learned about safety in the canoe, near water, and in the pool. They made us wear our clothes in the water to see what it would feel like if we actually fell in. We also learned about survival in the water.
Everyone really enjoyed swimming there. Thank you to Jen and Shelley for supervising us on the walk over and at the pool.

That Guy ---- by Shawn

As I sit quietly in my chair
I think a lot about my lack of hair
I can't see this mass of empty space
But I know it's as shiny as my face
Growing it long is not my game
Cause' when I wake I look the same
I don't use combs, brushes or shampoo
Or my Chia pet hair with sticky glue
I'm happy with my bristly dome
So I never pout, and I never moan
Hear me kids as I say with glee
When I look in the mirror, I'm still happy with me!!!

You Know That Guy?

You know that guy who's often there
In our room, sitting in a chair
He helps us out because he sure does care
Making sure that we treat each other fair'
And teaching us that it's important to share
Showing us how to give Ray a scare
Kind of reminds us of a big old bear
Except for the fact that he has no hair
You know-that guy-there?
