Our Canadian Hero-- Terry Fox!


We Ran for Terry Fox!

As a class, we discussed who Terry Fox was and why he is a Canadian Hero. We collected "Twoonies for Terry" to show our respect and appreciation to both Terry and Cancer Research. As well, we made our first class E-Book, showing each student running (or cheering) with Terry. Be sure to visit our classroom and take a look! 

Today I will end this quick Blog post with something that one of the student's in our class said. He put a smile on my face and reminded me of why I chose such a rewarding career.

(Huffing and puffing after our Terry Fox run...) "Ms. Brown, I ran so fast, my heart is beating the fastest and I am so tired. But you know what, I didn't quit because Terry Fox never quit. So I won't quit. That's why I love Terry Fox."
