Thank you all so much for being so great!  It’s been a true pleasure getting to know each of you and you’re all unique learners and great characters.  Our year has been great so far, and I know it will continue on that trend.  For your blog post over the holidays you only have one task.  Can you write a postcard to the class that thanks them for something specific that they’ve done or how they’ve made you feel this term.  Think of a time that being in our class has been fun, funny, positive, etc. and thank the class for that moment.  Then as the second part of the blog, post one resolution that you have for the new year.  A resolution is something specific that you’re going to try to do or improve on.
I can start with my example:  Thank you 6-2 for all the kind and caring words that you’ve written or shared with me just before the holidays.  It’s so nice to hear that you’ve been enjoying learning in class.  
My resolution for the new year is to try incorporate more outdoor experiences in our classroom next term.
Sincerely, Mr. Steltman

Success ... 8 Traits to be GREAT!

12/3/2015

 
How do you define success?  Are you feeling successful?  This very interesting TedEd talk by Richard St.John takes conversations that he has had with extremely successful people and he has found 8 traits or things that they all do that have helped them succeed.  
For your blog post this week, I want you to pick one of these 8 traits and decide how you will use it this week, and what that will look like?  Will you demonstrate passion during a sports event? Will you persist through a tough subject at school?  Spend your time focussing on that ONE thing so you don’t spread yourself too thin.  It's totally up to you what you pick but write down a plan and see if it helps!
