What does the Poppy Mean?

Students in 6TE have shared their reflections on what the Poppy means to them and why it is an important symbol of Remembrance Day.   These past few days we  have brainstormed, reflected, created and shared ideas about the powerful symbols of war and of peace.  We have viewed powerful videos, read poetry that was written one  hundred years ago as well as created wonderful art that captures the powerful symbol of remembrance.   We are certainly proud of our creations, be sure to check out our Water Color Poppy masterpieces.  We will remember and thank our Troops for their bravery and sacrifice.
Also, thank you to artist Sharon Johnston (my mom) for sharing her art expertise with us!
