Saskatoon - Day 1
I'm enjoying the wonderful weather in Saskatoon as I tour several schools in the city. Today, I paid a visit to W.P. Bate and Confederation Park Schools. The odd thing that I had to get used to was the fact that Saskatchewan has no junior high schools. The schools go from K - 8 and then 9 - 12. Once I got over the fact that kindergarten kids were going to be in the same sessions as teenagers, I was able to figure out how to tell stories that were appropriate to both age groups. The kids were great. Both schools were very welcoming. I had an awesome time.
My memorable moment of the day was finding a restaurant that looked like a grain elevator. It was a steakhouse called the Granary, and I was lucky enough to show up during a lobster special. Now I am stuffed.
