Today is International Day of the Girl.
We talked and shared what we understood that to mean. Why might girls feel they are not as valued as boys? What do we know about how girls are treated in some parts of the world? Do girls in our class feel they have less power than boys? What professional sports teams do we have in Toronto that celebrate athletic abilities of women? What can we ALL do together to ensure that girls feel valued and respected?
We watched two videos to help steer our conversations. Links are provided for you to view, too.

Our boys posted messages to our girls.
Our girls posted messages to each other.
These messages will stay up as reminders of who we are as a class.
