O.T and Kananaskis in the Classroom

This week we have been fortunate to have some excellent guest speakers.  Yesterday our schools occupational therapist (Ms.Stephanie) came to our class she discussed little problems with big reactions and what an appropriate reaction should be. We got to act some little problems out and brainstormed what expected behavior/responses should be. She will continue the series next Friday morning.

Today we had Kananaskis in the Classroom come and present in the gym for us.  We learned that invasive plants are the only plants allowed to be picked when visiting Kananaskis Country.  There were 3 plants in particular that we learned about.

Oxeye Daisy - spreads over 100 seeds to spread itself across the land.
Toadflax -  chokes out other plants, steals their water and nutrients.

Creeping Thistle - It's roots can go 4 1/2m down and 6m across to invade and steal native plants soil and habitat.

  2. If something is broken, it's a small problem because you can fix it or buy a new one.

  4. If it was your birthday party and someone spilled and you said 'hey, why did you spill?.. it's my birthday!", that would be a big reaction. If instead you said, "that's ok" and asked the person who spilled nicely to help clean up the mess, that's a small reaction.
