Ask An Expert Day!

This year, during Inquiry Buddies, students are once again exploring a huge range of passion areas.  One group have been researching Special Effects, and have taken particular interest in CGI.  Another group has been exploring dance and acting.  Yesterday, I invited an old friend of mine, while one of my brother's very good friends Jason Burkart in to talk with all three classes involved with Inquiry, not just those students studying Special Effects and Acting.  He did an amazing job and the message was less about acting and more about hard work, perseverence, adding to your tool chest and being the best version of yourself.  Several students in my class and the other class were excited by his story and his journey.  The two boys who are exploring special effects for their inquiry took time to write a reflection on their experience today for our class blog.
Myself and the other teachers were impressed by how honest and sincere Jason was and how his message was so much more than what we had anticipated! Thanks Jason for being our expert for the day!
