Saying good-bye
Put yourself in the shoes of a young person who must take refuge, yet leave her father in Ukraine to defend their home.

When war comes to town
A four school virtual day
Such a pleasure to meet with 4 schools today! First up was Delran Middle School in NJ. Students had just finished reading Making Bombs for Hitler and we had such good discussions about the real people and history behind that novel, that trilogy and also about Winterkill.
I also met with students from Souris School in Manitoba, East Selkirk MS, and Hollyburn School in West Vancouver.
Here are some Hollyburn pics:
