What We Learned Today...February 10th

Teaching us about combination locks!

Genius Hour:  This morning we started out our day with the next round of amazing Genius Hour presentations that continued on in the afternoon. I know Ms. Stewart-Mitchell was blown away with the quality of presentations yesterday and today certainly followed suit as I was so impressed with how great of a job the students did with these projects.  It was so cool to have each student share their passions with us and show us how they became a Genius on their topic over the past two and a half months.  I can't wait until Thursday when we will finish up these awesome presentations!

Arts. Ed: Ms. Postma stopped by and the students continued to work on their fictional character song assignment from last class.

Grade 8 Math: Students who were able to watch the video last night began working on the 7.2 textbook assignment (See full assignment below).  Those who were unable to watch it last night spent the first ten minutes of class checking it out before working on the assignment as well.
