What We Learned Today...January 28th

A picture from our field trip yesterday!

ELA: Students spent the first half hour of class silently reading during AR before moving on to our persuasive writing.  For the remainder of the period, we reviewed how to write an engaging paragraph before the students began working on a persuasive paragraph on the mystery of Oak Island.

Phys. Ed: Mr. Fuchs led the class to the gym and the students had the opportunity to participate in a full basketball scrimmage.

Genius Hour: Due to band students being away, the remaining students had the period to work on their Genius Hour presentations or any other homework they had.

Career Ed: After lunch we spent sometime exploring key school skills that are easily transferable into the workplace and students were tasked with writing about five skills they feel they already have.

Science: During the last hour of the day the students worked on a blog post assignment that tasked them with reflecting on their trip to the Science Centre yesterday.  They had to write two paragraphs, one on something new they learned yesterday and the second on their favourite part of our trip.  If you would like to read these blog posts please visit our blog at:
