What We Learned Today...April 22nd

RIP Smart Board! We will miss you...

This morning we headed straight down to the gym after the bell for a quick school wide assembly led by Mr. McCulloch.  (Ms. Grad and Ms. Norris were away today)  Once we got back to class the students grabbed their Ecological Murals and went straight to work in the Multipurpose Room to work because there was a bit of work being done to our class.  *Reminder: these projects will be due at the end of the day on Wednesday!
Due to the work going on in the senior classes, our Math class needed to move spaces for the hour which meant we were unable to do the planned lesson for today.  Instead students were given the option to write a re-test for the Unit 6 Exam or work on their 7.1 handouts from last week. 

After lunch we had French and the students continued to work on their Food Picture Dictionary assignments.  As we are nearing the final classes for this project, I'm starting to see some really incredible assignments come together.  I can't wait to see all of the finished products at the end of the week.  (Don't forget these assignments are due on Friday).  At 1:15 the students had Career Guidance and continued to work on thier Pink Slip assignments from last class.  Finally, during the last hour of the day we had an extra Math class and students were given their new usernames and passwords for IXL.  (We recently purchased over 150 student accounts so our class will have access to the website for the rest of the year, and grade 7's will have access to theirs next year as well)
