Welcome Back and Happy 2020
Suggested Activity:
Getting Back to the swing of things, we have a pretty chill week for you! During our Mentorship Assemblies we usually have sign holders. We thought it would be a good idea for each Mentorship to create a HOUSE sign to display during Assemblies - AS A HOUSE Come up with a House Name (perhaps create a google doc for teachers to share ideas - this could be done all together on a certain morning, then vote as a house on your favourite) and then EACH MENTORSHIP can create a logo to match the name. Once each Mentorship has created their logo decide as a house if you want to pick one as your House Logo or if you want to rotate logos. ONE logo could potentially be made into a poster and we could display them in the gym
Monday: Connect with your class. Possible Conversation Starters: What was your best moment/funniest moment over the holiday. What was your favorite/strangest gift? What story can you tell about your gifts? Did anyone go away for the holidays? Essentially time to connect and bring the kids back to thinking of school. Please connect with other House Teachers in regards to creating a house name.
Tuesday: Get on LIVE Google Doc with other House Mentorship classes (teachers from each house have been approached to start a google doc for your house. Please watch for information from them). Start brainstorming ideas. Other classes will be adding ideas as well, build on those ideas.
Wednesday: Get on LIVE Google Doc with other House Mentorship classes (teachers from each house have been approached to start a google doc for your house. Please watch for information from them). Start brainstorming ideas. Other classes will be adding ideas as well, build on those ideas.
Teachers - Narrow down the lists to 3-5 appropriate house names. Showcase those names to your class. Vote on which name is best - have someone compile the results. Team name should be decided by end of week to ensure logo creation can get started as soon as possible.
Thursday:
Announce team name and brainstorm ideas for logo which can be displayed on a large poster... Ideally we would like to have you display your logo in the gym, or on a large flag or banner. We will look at the feasibility of obtaining flags.
Friday:
Continue working on Logo and go over Basketball Rules/Expectations for the next challenge that starts Monday.
