Dear Students,
Today we discussed what it means to be Courageous (or brave). We learned that there are many ways of showing courage - it is not just about physical bravery. Using some of our new words and phrases from the classroom Wall of Courage, write us an example of bravery. (Remember courage can be about small things, like trying something new0. Don't forget to list the person or animal's name and then tell us what type of "COURAGE" they have demonstrated. Please write your response in complete sentences in the comments section.

example #1
Sydney Neil: I believe this young girl showed courage when she first learned how to ride her bike. Despite her tumbles on a gravel road and a long slip into a deep ditch she never gave up! Sydney dried her tears and tried over and over again until she could eventually ride on her own. She was determined to succeed!
examle #2
Fatima: This fictional character in a novel I recently read showed bravery by thinking and taking care of others. This young girl lived in a war torn country. When she and her young infant brother became separated from her family she took charge of him, putting her needs and fears aside. Fatima even took the responsibility of another child she did not know along her journey. She was courageous, brave, kind ,patient and selfess.

kb 4g:I think I was courageous by trying again and again. One day I tried driving a four-wheeler for the first time. I drove a bit and lost consciousness. When I woke up, I had bumped into the bush and the four-wheeler was over me. I still go riding in four-wheelers at that spot and I like that. So I think that is brave and courageous.

cm: I was riding my ski-doo with my brother. "Boom", I fell off of the skidoo. My brother sprained is ankle and I almost sprained my ankle too. But I did not and I helped him up. My dad came and we brought him to the doctor. It is brave and being a hero saving others and helping others like I did.

Igino Delasara,
He was my great grandfather who fought in World War two. He survived. That is why he is my hero and why he is courageous!

One day I went to my uncle's house. I went on his ski-doo and he got on with me. We went in the back of his house. I fell off of his ski-doo. It hurt me, but then I got back on it.

My mom was brave when she was young. Her brother broke his arm by jumping off of a swing. My mom picked him up and walked him all the way to her house. My mom called 911 for an ambulance. She was brave to pick him up when he was bleeding a lot. When he fell it was on big rocks! I would not pick up somebody that is bleeding a lot like that. So that is brave!
