​Watch the video "What's Good, Jordan Reeves?" below.  When you're done, imagine that you have the opportunity to interview Jordan.   

• What would you ask her?
• Write down 5-10 interview questions.
  • ​Speak to those around you and ask what questions they would like to ask Jordan.
• Be sure to include questions about Jordan's activism!
• ​When you're done, record yourself asking these questions to Jordan.

grade 6

Let's start​​ by reading a very interesting article about an amazing girl, Jordan Reeves.  Follow this link for a superb read choices.scholastic.com/etc/classroom-magazines/reader.html?id=36-020120

When you've read the article, watch the "Marvel's Hero Project" video below.  Marvel says that "superheroes are inspired by real-life heroes".  So now think about someone in your life who is a hero to you.  Use Pixton  (www.pixton.com) as your comic book creator and create a graphic novel starring your hero.  You can include a superhero costume, but be sure to mention the actions or qualities that make this person one of your heroes.

activity 1: Which option is for you? 

​OPTION 1: A PRESENTATION ABOUT 'WHAT I'M WONDERING ABOUT RIGHT NOW'

Here's a research project opportunity.  Show us all what you know.

1. Brainstorm topic ideas on a piece of paper
   1. ​What are you wondering about right now or what have you been wondering about over the last few months (let's try and think about more than just COVID19)?
   2. Choose 3 topics (e.g. space, dogs and the pyramids) and write them on the paper.
2. Choose 1 of the topics and write 3 questions about the topic. (I wonder ......? , Why do .......,? , How do .....?)
3. Write 2 more questions about your topic.  Ask those at home what they think and wonder about your topic.
4. Research your topic and answer the questions you have come up with
5. Create a presentation in Google Slides.​

OPTION 2: A PRESENTATION ABOUT 'MY TIME OFF'

​Create a Google Slide presentation about your stay at home.

• This is a strange time for us all. Create a presentation to share some ideas or stories about the school closure.
• You could create a presentation about one day or about the whole 3 weeks.

Ideas: 

• What did you do while school was closed?
  • What was different?
  • Anything interesting happen?
• Anything you enjoy about being at home?
  • Anything you miss about school?
  • What is the hardest thing about staying at home?
  • Did you do anything new?
  • etc.

activity 2: Kindness wall

I've created an e-pin wall for us all.  Let's post up examples of kindness that we come across.  All great examples of kindness; from those we see in our home, to those we see and hear about around the world. 
The link to our page is just here (GRADE 6 WALL & GRADE 5 WALL) but watch the attached video first, for a short piece of information on how to use the wall.
I can't wait to see what is placed up and to feel positive when I read and watch the examples of kindness you're sharing with one another.

The Latin saying “mens sana in corpore sano,” which translates to “a healthy mind in a healthy body,” is more relevant now than ever!
