What We Learned Today...April 8th

Our new seating arrangement!

ELA: This morning we continued our mini persuasive essay unit by reading the essay, "Summer: 15 Days or 2 1/2 Months?".  Students were tasked with reading the essay and then deconstructing the key components on their persuasion map.

Career Guidance: We officially kicked off our unit on Entrepreneurship by discussing what exactly an Entrepreneur is and where we could find some local examples here in Regina.  Students were also given a hypothetical situation where they were given $100 to start up their own business and had to explain to the class what their business would be.

Religion: After lunch the students got into their groups from yesterday and began working on their Stations of the Resurrection assignments.

Math: Students were given the entire period to write their Unit 8 Math Exam.

*Students, please remember email me your photo re-creation assignments for your Grade 8 Farewell. These are due on Friday, April 16th and I have only received a few so far.  Please, Please, Please start getting them into me soon.  Just in case you lost the note that went home, here is a digital copy.
