The students were really excited to be a part of this project and our school ended up donating quite a bit of food to Second Harvest Food Bank. The classes that brought in the most food got to have a free dress day (the students usually wear uniforms).
The other exciting thing this month was video chatting with our awesome mentor Lex Gillette. My students enjoyed asking him questions about participating in the Olympics, training, everyday life, etc. He also told the students a great story about a time when he wanted to give up but kept on persevering. They really consider Lex to be their friend, they are benefitting so much from his mentorship. They also loved the shirts, stickers, pencils and folders from Classroom Champions and the Lex poster is now hanging proudly in our room.
