In today's class, Ms. Lloyd was gracious enough to walk us through 'The Personhood Project." This is a lesson, designed (and previously taught in Ms. Lloyd's classes) by former Handsworth students. It is centred around ideas of consent and boundaries, and deconstructs some of the deplorable behaviours presented early on in The Outsiders.
Students had the opportunity to actively contribute to the lesson - they did an excellent job of maintaining the classroom environment needed for this level of conversation.
At the end of the block, students began work on a reflection. While some may have finished the work, others will need to complete the writing at home for handing in tomorrow.
A reminder that Learner Profiles were sent home on the same day as the learning updates were published - take a look at points for improvement, but also take the time to celebrate the many areas in which success is apparent.
