Grade Eight Leadership

 Mrs. Kingstone taught the Grade Eights a thing or two about leadership this week. "Create a Game" was the title of the leadership activity. Mrs. Kingstone separated the Eights into six groups and assigned each group an assortment of five seemingly unrelated items. She challenged each group to create a game using all of their items and to report to the group the name of their game, the goal of the game, a clear set of rules for the game, who in the group took part in the game's creation and how well the group communicated. The groups had the opportunity to work together to achieve a goal, problem solve, practice communication skills, and to begin the exploration of leadership. We were amazed at how each group pulled together to fulfill Mrs. Kingstone's expectations and now know that the School will be proud of these future leaders.
