Our school-wide field trip to the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra is for a concert that connects to the Roch Carrier short story, 'The Hockey Sweater' ('Le chandail d'hockey'). You might remember it from your own junior high days. Here's the National Film Board short in English. The 6/7s will be looking at it a bit en francais, aussi!
- "When you change your mind about stress, you can change your body's response to stress." Kelly McGonigal's TED Talk from Edinburgh, Scotland, 2013. An interesting look at the connection between mind and body.

Quote
I have been remiss, too, in not providing links to the source for most of the quotes I share here. Values.com consistently provide me with great material. I just can't figure out how to get their stuff embedded rather than reposting it myself. In addition to these quotes images, they also have a wonderful set of billboards and TV ads. |
