AAA Project


A talking stick helped us to
take turns sharing ideas.

Hello room 30 readers. Right now we are working on AAA (Aboriginal Academic Achievement) story telling project. Every class will be writing a pour quoi tale. Our topic was about how the buffalo got its horns. Do you know? We all got to write our own ideas of how we thought the buffalo got its horns. We had a kick off assembly to introduce the project and get us excited! We also had a guest speaker who was an Aboriginal story teller. He told us how he became a story teller and had to get up any time of the day and listen to the story and then memorize the story. On Thursday we will be meeting with Mr. Kapilik and Miss. Mitchell to write our class story. Lots of the class mates had really good ideas of how the buffalo got his horns. Next week we as a class will be making masks to go with the characters in our story. We will be practicing telling our story soon and present it to other classes. I`m looking forward to doing the presenting of the story! Stay tuned for more information.
