A Model Magazine

Reader's Digest CanadaUpdated: Mar. 20, 2019

Your stories in Our Canada became the inspiration for these Grade 5 students. Modelled after Our Canada, they created their own magazine called Our Classroom. Thanks to their teacher Les Mepham of Windsor, it turned out great!

Vacation

Riley writes about his vacation, a popular theme in Our Canada as well! The students also came up with creative ideas for the magazine, like Eye Ball Benders, Spot the Difference and instead of just a loonie, they hid a toonie in their magazine as well!
