What We Learned Today...November 25th

ELA: Today we did a lot of reading over our ELA period! To begin, the students were given their usual half hour of AR before we got right back into Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone and read Chapter 15.

Health: Over the period, students took turns meeting with me to discuss their progress so far this year as well as their goals for the next term.  Unfortunately we didn't get through everyone today, so we will finish up tomorrow in Health.

Religion:  Students continued to present on their Human Rights Activist. Today we learned about the lives of Jose Rizal and Desmond Tutu and how they have made a difference in the world.

Grade 8 Math: To start the class, students took a brief Socrative quiz (Finally!) on the lesson from last night and then began to work on their 4.3 assignment.  (Full assignment posted below)

Science: During the last hour of the day we continued our Mirror Challenge from yesterday and students used their knowledge of the Law of Reflection to bounce a laser off of five mirrors in order to hit their target.  Check out some of the pictures from this activity below!
