Stepping Back In Time To Be Reborn

30 June 2016

Last Monday evening the Grade 8s all went back in time to the Renaissance. Seamstress Sally Smith made us all amazing costumes and we memorized lots of details about our characters: Shakespeare, da Vinci, Francis Bacon, Mary, Queen of Scots, Anne Boleyn, etc.  We walked around the lobby of the Bunch Centre filling people in on how important we were in the Renaissance, and also about how we are still having an impact today. It was amazing to see the whole class in old fashioned clothes while we walked around and conversed with other people. Everyone looked so amazing that it almost looked like we had actually gone back to the Renaissance. Nobody was left out; everyone always had someone to tell about their character. Lots of people in the class were playing characters who interacted during the Renaissance so they could point each other out when they were talking about the lives of their characters.  There was also a table at the side of the room that had all of our poems so that everyone could read them.  It was a great learning experience and I hope the next group of Grade 8s can do it too.  Connor LL
