The Story of Terry Fox

"Who was Terry Fox?"
"Why is Terry Fox so important?" 
"What is cancer? If you have cancer do you have to stay away from other people?"
"What do they do with the money we raise?"

We have been learning about Terry Fox and the important role he played in 
raising awareness about cancer.
We have read stories, watched videos and participated in conversations about Terry's life and his Marathon of Hope. 
We have learned interesting facts about his story and used our new knowledge to help us communicate our understandings, thoughts and feelings.

On September 30th, we participated in a school-wide run for the Terry Fox foundation. Our whole school ran 1280 kms and we raised over $600!

Have a look at what we've done!
