Rileys Home entry #1

Hi Mr.Mcrann,
We just got high-speed today so I just thought I would try our blog out. Bye!

Field trip by Camster the giggity man

                                                           Field trip

The field trip was awesome but very cold. I learned a lot and saw some of the remanes of the pit houses. Shanoon told us a lot about the nature and the history around rails to trails same as Mr.Lindsay who told us a lot about the natives and the pit houses.
I think that the field tripwas fun. I learned tons about natives and different things that they did to survive. It was awsome. we found a ton out about the natives ways that the survived in there dug outs. we also learned that the reason they died was becase the eoropeons came they brought different disises that the natives werent used to.the guy who told us about all of this also showed us some of there wepons and tools.

OMG HAZEL

hazel holly you are so mean and that picture is not suposed to be there nothing on the blog is supposed to be changed mr.mc.rann said that u can not change anything on the blog. uuuuuuuuuuuuuuugggggggggggggg

it was kind of fun.

Yesterdays field trip was the funnest but coldest field trip ever. It was fun to know where the First Nations lived. I'm a little bit disappointed about it b'c I didn't hear much about the end of the railway. I talked to Marly's mom about it a bit and she seemed to know a little bit about it. She said that maybe it ended b'c of economy and she also said that there was an extra railbed but it didn't seem to last long. It ended near the site we went to. I was glad to go, though.

Kaya's blog

I think the digital story telling project is going to be really fun but also hard to work with partners because we might not get all our ideas out. The people I'm working with are Brianne and Shasta and were doing the beginning. I know that the kind of train track they used were called narrow gauge tracks.

I think digital story telling is going to be fun and I think our topic is going to be fun to ya.

Welcome!

Welcome to the new Winlaw school blog space. We can use this space for various activities, but we will start by using this as a way for reflecting about our experience with our digital story telling project.

This project will be a big undertaking for many of us, therefore, it will be important for all of us to support one and another, using this space is one way that we can do that.

There are a couple of rules that go along with this opportunity:

1) only positive/project related blogs and comments should be posted on this site. This is important so that everybody feels safe and comfortable to post and reply on this blog.

2) Try to have fun and be creative with your blog posts.

3) Read other the students' blog posts and comment on them with your positive ideas and resources you may have.
