What We Learned Today...September 27


After our AR time this morning, we finished up our Religion handout and learned about what "Christian Pentecost" is and the significance it has within our faith.  In ELA the students continued to work on their research paragraph about someone who has "stepped up" or "taken a stand" in history.  Once groups finish up their research, the groups will begin to script and rehearse their News Broadcasts.
In Grade 8 Math we continued to work on Pg. 85 in the textbook and used the hour to complete the assignment. (If you are unsure of which questions to do please see the "Math" page)  However, as Math concluded the class was treated to some very impressive lip syncing and dancing that would have made Leonardo DiCaprio proud!


During French, students began to present their short introductory French conversations to the class and man did we experience a wide range of conversations.  We had two people discussing how to get into a "bald club" (very interesting secret handshake...), a proposal, a bank robbery and even an impromptu gangnam style dance!  It was an interesting class to say the least...
For the last hour of the day we took part in the Terry Fox walk with the entire school.
