I had a wonderful last day with the students today. I will be absent from school tomorrow because I will be attending my daughter's high school graduation.
The students and I thoroughly enjoyed our party in recognition of Helen Keller's life, grit, and important contributions.  Thank you to everyone who brought items in to  help us enjoy this time. The students had the opportunity to read a braille message written by my neighbour, read a braille magazine, use a white cane, guide one another and be guided, and explore a variety of items and food from the perspective of someone with a visual impairment.
They brought their published narrative writing books home either yesterday or today. The students are very proud of their work, and they should be!
We enjoyed the wonderful talent show today as well as a slide show and performance from the teachers.
Finally, I would like to add that I have thoroughly enjoyed being your child's teacher this year! We have had a wonderful year full of exciting experiences. I wish everyone a safe and very happy summer and look forward to seeing all the familiar, wonderful faces heading to grade 5 in the fall.
